and lives with her husband, four cats and a dog, in Adelaide, South Australia.
She has 2 spinning wheels: a Babe upright Charkha, about which she is passionate,
and a beautiful mahogany hand-crafted Saxony-style wheel that was found on Ebay.
As well as spinning, she dyes her own fibres, with some help from her furry fiends
and is into crochet, knitting and felting.
She also weaves (on a tri-loom and square looms) and is venturing into the world of blogging, see link below.
She has been challenged by Fibromyalgia since a teen-ager. After a major heart attack in 2002 that left her an invalid,
she doesn't like putting off until tomorrow things that can be done today, and hope this website will pass on to others her
enthusiasm for, and love of, fibre crafts.

She finances her crafts through online auctions: as she has a squirrel mentality, she recycles excess crafty bits,
such as books, spinning tools and supplies, through her shop on Ebay:
