About Me

My photo
Elmtree
I am a fibre artist and love textiles , and must make things in order not to get cranky. I am a third generation op-shop-aholic . I spin, crochet , felt, sew, stitch as well as a little playing with paper, glue and paints. I will also write about my small family adventures with my husband and 2 grown-up daughters. I live in Napier , New Zealand. Please respect the unwritten rules and manners of all artisans out there, I consider my creations to be my intellectual property. It is a much better feeling when you know you have made something original yourself! Do feel inspired though!
