I am a creative designer and author for the craft industry. My projects have been featured in various craft magazines and publications. I have contributed to several craft books, including The Michael's Book of Paper Crafts (Lark, 2005) and Teeny Tiny Cards (Lark 2007). My book The New Paper Quilling was released in April (2006). Primarily non-traditional, the book is a perfect example of hybrid* quilling. It is a selection of Crafter's Choice Book Club.

Quilling, also known as paper filigree, is the art of rolling narrow strips of paper around a pin-like tool into a circle and shaped to form three-dimensional designs. The origin of quilling has been traced to European monasteries of the fifteenth century, but the actual creation of the art may date back to the thirteenth century. It is believed that feather quills were originally used to roll the paper strips.
