"I am most happy when handling fabrics.

Born in Belgium in a house with two seamstresses, a grandmother and an aunt, it was very natural that I started sewing at about the age of four. In grade school, I learned to knit, crochet, and embroider. On to high school, still it was sewing all the way. After four years of teaching and design school, I was on my way to the U.S. with several yards of fabrics in my trunk that I could not leave behind. 

Finding Vintage Fabrics and laces, and putting colors together makes me the happiest!"
