Simply Art (c) Simply Basic(c) Patterns
My love of both art, and a simple basic way of life, includes needle arts in different ways. The section of my website that details Vintage Sewing refers to my love and use of vintage sewing machines and their attachments. On this page you will find links to my pages regarding hand stitching such as Needlepoint, and Crewel Embroidery, If you don't see your area of needle art here, please come back and visit again as I build this area of my website. Also pleas see the Weaving page for Loom Bead Weaving, Weave-It and other weaving topics.

About Knitting and Crocheting: I also both knit and crochet, using my own handspun wools as well as commercial wools and cottons. I will have some information on knitting or crochet throughout the site, and perhaps a page on my own knitted items "collection". The internet has vast amounts of information on both knitting and crocheting, and I feel for me to repeat much of it on this site is unnecessary. However, I love to do both knitting and crocheting, and that will be reflected throughout the website. My knitting and crocheting patterns can be found on the page Simply Art (c) Simple Basics, and I will add any additional pages below. My patterns include easy-to-follow instructions for the particular pattern, and any pages listed below are for "fun" or additional enjoyment of these two types of needle art.
