Clematis Heather Scarf $32.00

2) How did you become interested in creating? As a child, I remember watching a knitter in the waiting room of a doctor’s office. I was amazed at how she was turning yarn into a piece of fabric. So, I taught myself to knit with the help of a book.

Brindle Heather Scarf $32.00

3) What is your inspiration? I use scraps of yarn to try out stitches from a stitch dictionary. Then, when I get a new color of yarn it tells me which stitch to use to make a scarf.

2) How did you become interested in creating? I have always been a creative person even in elementary school I loved to paint. Now today I can't paint more than an apple tree or stick man, but have learned I can created other adorable creations. My other passion is photography. So basically I just have a love and desire for all things beautiful.

3) What is your inspiration? My inspiration is definitely my family. They support me always, and it's a great inspiration. But as far as creative inspiration I "LOVE" color and I "LOVE" creating something new and original!

4) What is your favorite piece you've made and why? I think my favorite piece I have created would have to be my the Bloomers in my Flower Garden Collection. Because I am a photographer I love babies...but sometimes mom just doesn't want those nude shots for her baby girl....so I wanted to create some beautiful and unique for those babies. I scoured the web looking for something similar and when I didn't find anything I knew I was on to something! That is why those bloomers are my favorite!!

Jennifer's work can be found on her Etsy page and on her website.

1) How did you become interested in creating? I have always had some sort of creative pursuit happening...for as long as I can remember. I was surrounded by a very creative family with all sorts of art and craft passions. I studied art for six years and continued for a while with art and life drawing at night school and also studied textiles and design for 2 years.

2) What is your inspiration?These days I am totally inspired by colour and all manner of things to do with colour. I have been particularly interested in the way colour can be used for personal growth and the way we express ourselves through our choices in colour.I am currently having a lot of fun working with some fabrics such as bamboo, hemp and silk. My colours turn out differently on each different fabric I use and this presents inspiration in itself.

3) What is your favorite piece you've made and why? I can't say that any one piece I have made is my favourite. Each item I create holds within it a part of my fascination for and love of colour.
