My work has been exhibited nationally in galleries, museums, upscale gift shops and art centers and I've taught many workshops all over North Georgia, sharing weaving techniques in schools, art camps and garden clubs. Since 1996 I have enjoyed teaching several times every year at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, North Carolina. Recently students have been coming to my studio for one-on-one instruction.

The fiber art jewelry started as relaxation and now is an important part of my work, even incorporating kudzu vine in some of it. I draw upon my childhood training from my mother and her sisters who taught me knitting, crocheting, and weaving. Now I use imported Irish waxed linen cord, crystals, gem stones, sterling silver, brass and copper charms in several styles of necklaces and matching earrings. Currently I have been making my own beads for the jewelry, using the copper enameling technique.

The two parts of my work are really alike, for I consider the vines as fibers since I can manipulate them practically anywhere I wish. I feel closest to the Creator when I am out in the woods gathering the vines to begin my work."
