Folk Art

I love folk art.  It has so many stories to tell.  If you become a student of folk art, you learn about the lives of people both present and past.  You gain insight into what is important to an individual culture; what they believe, their struggles and their joys.  To support modern folk artists is to support everyday people and to keep their traditions alive.

Wind Rose and So Much More!

Creativity will always be my inspiration here at Wind Rose. While I love all arts and crafts, my main focus is fiber with an emphasis on crochet. This year I'm embarking on a new goal. I'll be making YouTube tutorials for all of my designs.
