I’m offering Besoms and Tampico Fiber Brooms in October and indulging one of my non-broom passions in December with Embroidery on Knitwear. I’m also teaching Turkey Wings and Cobwebbers at The Three Two Store in Westbrook, Connecticut on November 5th.

If there’s anything I enjoy more than creating with my own hands, it’s helping others experience the magic of making beautiful, functional objects. Using primarily natural materials, simple hand tools, and some broomsquire tricks of the trade, even first-time students can make a whisk broom start to finish during an introductory three-hour class. I teach regularly at Handiwork and PortFiber in Portland, ME, as well as at the Sabbathday Lake Shaker Village in New Gloucester, ME.
