I am an avid sewer. My main approach as a designer couples the use of repurposed and recycled materials with a focus toward environmentally conscious consumerism. I love the hunt for anything vintage to breath a new life into it.

Two sides Topsy-Turvy
My passion for my project stems back to my childhood. I owned a Topsy Turvy Doll which had been sewn by my Grammie. One side of the doll was little red riding hood, the other side her Grandmother. Lurking behind the Grandmother’s bonnet was a sinister bad wolf. I admit I was obsessed. Turning the doll over and over only to surprise myself each time with the wolf when I pulled back the bonnet to reveal the snarling wolf. Was is a warning of danger? Were the Grandmother and Red Riding Hood never truly safe? What ever the meaning it was visual story telling the ignited my love for dolls and sewing.
