I am from the beautiful island of Trinidad in the Caribbean, famous for Steelpan, Soca, Calypso and Carnival. Carnival is an annual festival teaming with pulsating rhythms and colorful costumes. I remember as a child helping to embellish Carnival costumes that were created by my uncle.  There was always something going on at my Grandmother’s house where our extended family lived. My sisters Marlene, Michelle & myself  learned many crafts as children  going to various classes not to be “idle” over the summer vacations.

I moved to New York about 25 years ago. For many years I was busy working and raising my two sons and crafting was put on a back burner. I bought myself a camera about 10 years ago when I moved to North Carolina and discovered a new love, Nature Photography. l rediscovered my “crafty” side when a friend heard I can crochet and asked me to make a pair of crochet earrings. I had learned to crochet as a child but had not done it in many years. Once I started I could not stop so Etsy here I am.

I have since moved back to Queens, New York and my family has grown. I now have a daughter-in -law and two beautiful grandsons all
