about me

I am a Boston-based fiber artist. I live with my husband- Ben Hyde- in a Victorian era (1892) 2-family house. I have 3 kids who are mostly grown up and doing their own things. I graduated from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1976 with a BFA.
I will be in Chicago for Renegade Craft Fair! September 11 & 12, 2010.
I play Twitter here. And have a Facebook fan page.
See me in my studio in the Handmade Portrait video from Etsy.
Hear me talk about what I do-
October 2007 with Sister Diane of Craftypod.
October 2006 with Carley – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (all the links in this post.)
Here is a post with lots of doll making resources- books, kits, patterns.
A post from 2004 about how and why I got started making dolls.

Are you local to the Boston area and looking for a craft type internship? I am very interested in having a part-time intern- 6 to 15 hours a week- and would love to hear from you.
