Bio:
I'm a wife and mother to four children. I recently graduated with my doctorate degree in Audiology, and enjoy that profession, but find my greatest joys in my family and creating. I had the great opportunity to study abroad in Israel, which had a profound effect in my life. I've lived in several Western states, and now enjoy living in rural Idaho. My husband and I built our home, including the framing, roofing, electrical and finish work. I work less than 10 hours a week outside of our home, enough to keep my license current and skill set up to date for the time when our children are grown. I also volunteer actively in our church. I've loved contributing when I can to Craft Hope, which has also been fun for my children. I believe that to create is a divine desire. It is my hope that as I share my adventures in creating and family life, I can spark another person's creativity.

Project:
Is your home overflowing with matchbox cars? After Christmas mine was! So, I wanted to make an organizer that would keep the cars accessible, and add some style to the boys' room. The car applique was inspired by the pocket fabric. I used freezer paper stencils for the wording, and to enhance to car applique. I made piping and sewed it around the edge to set off the silhouette of the hanger. There are seven pockets per row, so this particular length holds 42 cars. The back has an envelope closure, so that I can remove the hanger if I need to wash the garage. Best part, it hangs in the closet, or on a hook, and can be put away when not in use.
