About

My Background


Yvonne was raised on a cattle farm surrounded by antiques, handmade quilts and rugs. Her Swiss father instilled in her the value of handcrafted items. After raising her 4 daughters in England, Singapore and Canada, Yvonne recently returned to a rural lifestyle in the countryside of Erin, Ontario. The farm will be where Yvonne will teach creative workshops and hold fibre retreats.  

Yvonne has always been drawn to textures and colours. After careers in Photography and Montessori teaching, she has finally found her passion in textile art.
