Event Description
When she was seven years old, two important events influenced Katie’s creative development. Santa brought her a tiny hand-crank sewing machine, and a kindly neighbour taught her to crochet. Now, over 60 years later, she marries these influences into the creation of colourful and durable crocheted rag rugs made of cloth strips. Her repertoire of work now includes baskets, placemats, trivets, even snuggly beds for pets. Her love for fabric also includes sewing aprons with flare to cheer every home chef.
