About the Author

As one of New Zealand's leading cross stitch designers I have spent decades creating patterns that have been enjoyed worldwide.

My designs have been published in JustCrossStitch magazine in the States, in Britain, also in Australia and many series have run over several years in women's magazines here in New Zealand.
Each design is personally drawn, stitched and tested before it becomes a pattern to enjoy.

This traditional approach takes me longer, but it means every pattern has been tested in the real world.Β 

Four cross stitch books have been produced by Reed Publishing and a further five have been self published.
