1 How did you first get introduced to your craft?

I love designing hats, which is very odd since I hardly wear hats at all!

3 What are you most known for?

Hats and newborn photography props.

4 How do you jump-start your creativity?

Looking online and in magazines for inspiration.

5 What season inspires you the most?

Autumn, I love the colors!

6 On average, how many new patterns do you design each year?

I would love to get better at my knitting.

Sitting on the couch watching movies with my family.
