About 25 years ago, Allearthlings was born along side my eldest child.
Organics, cloth diapers and well made patchwork clothing were not readily available at that time, so I decided to make these items for our growing family. My first patchwork skirt made is as soft and comfortable as ever & over 24 years old!
We've traveled many times all over the USA ... selling our goods at festivals, concerts & shops along the way! And had the opportunity to travel abroad on many occasions, finding inspiration abound.

Knitting became a part of Allearthlings in 2009 on a cross country adventure, leaving me without my studio and machines, but the need of creating and bidding my time. The "Traveling Hats" line was created over a 6 month period, with great success of keeping our family and friends heads toasty warm!

I come from a long line of designers and seamstresses, personally being taught by my Mom, Aunts and Grandmothers.
With their encouragement and skills, Savannah College of Art and Design was my place of formal education and refinement in utilitarianism and construction elements, textile understanding and color theory applications.

The years have flown by, all the while Allearthlings has been a consistent place of Zen for me... my form of meditation and peace... my warm nest of textiles, gentle hums of machines and self expression. Ever changing and transforming myself as time passes and inspiration changes.

As a lifelong lover of martial arts films, a former accomplished Martial Artist, current yogi & my Son a former Aikidoist,
I have become enthralled with Weapons Bags!
After years of trying to find my "thing" I find so much enjoyment designing & creating weapons bags, whether for Jo, bokken, Tanto, katana, bo, gun clips, hunting pack, archery, knives, etc.... I find myself thinking of ancestors, of history & tradition in the craft of storing objects of such importance to survival.
