About Patti: After many years as a custom drapery seamstress and an interior house painter, among other distractions, I launched into a nursing career. Now that I’m mostly retired, I’ve immersed myself in creating textile and mosaic art – including quilting, Sashiko embroidery, punch needle embroidery, and more.
