Rug hooking became a way to stay creative and be home with young children. Painting involved a separate studio space with long stretches of solitude. Eleven years ago I had to adapt an artistic medium to accommodate my role as a new mother living in a small apartment. Rug Hooking became that medium. It became a way to stay creative and be at home with young children. For me, it’s as expressive as painting, yet takes up little space, makes little mess, and is easily picked up and put down throughout the day.

With the help of Craftsy, you can now take my classes remotely making them fit into your schedule more conveniently than ever!
