Someone asked me once about how my jewelry making journey began…

When I was a very young girl, an eye condition required me to wear an eye patch and do regular hand-eye coordination therapy. The therapy was to work on a bead loom with seed beads for a half hour or more each and every day! I was most self-conscious about the patch; however I believe that my early experience with beads started me down the path of jewelry design – a journey which continues full steam (and is still therapeutic) all these decades later.
