I'm not sure what to do as it has become very…"

- More About Me
- I live in Belmont, NC a small, quaint town just outside of Charlotte, NC. I can see the skyline of center city but the pace of life is still slow and enjoyable. I have a small in home studio where I make my handmade scrapbooking items and hand altered items.
I have two beautiful teenage daughters and we all enjoy scrapbooking together. I decided to open a studio on Artfire to offer my handmade paper piecing and premade scrapbook creations to wider audience of people. I have been scrapbooking for a number of years and have sold many paper piecing items on a auction site and in our community.
I really enjoy using materials, patterns and whatever else I can find from other indie artisans. All of the patterns I use are either created by me or I have purchased from other indie artist.
I enjoy the art of paper piecing; for me it is such a useful art form since these pieces are used to enhance those special memories we celebrate in our scrapbooks for years to come. I hope you will find a special paper piecing or two or more in my shop to add to your scrapbook memories.

"I use Square too, it's portable, you can take it with you where ever you go & the money goes straight to your bank account.
