Welcome

Thanks for stopping by my website. I hope you enjoy your visit.  My goal is for you to get to know me and to view my gourd creations.  I have also included some reference material and some of my favorite gourd sites. 

I have only been working with Gourds since January 2007.  Piecemakers, which is a quilting and craft store in Costa Mesa CA, offers many kinds of classes regularly.  And as I perused the class offering pages I saw a beginning class on gourds taught by Diane Calderwood.  I took that class along with several others and have fallen in love with gourd art.
