I was honored, this week, to be interviewed by the awesome Jean Yates. Jean won a pair of my earrings in a giveaway hosted by Earrings Everyday. Having connected through this giveaway, Jean then asked if she could interview me on her blog.
Jean is a well known author, bead magazine columnist, freelance reviewer, frequently published jewelry designer and illustrator. Her book, Links, was already a part of my beading library.

Links, by Jean Yates
Jean has been very positive and encouraging to me. She asked good, thought provoking questions in the interview and posted lots of pictures of my recent jewelry designs. She also posted a school photo of me (I was a teacher, remember) from about 5 years ago. My hair is about 8 inches longer now and a bit grayer, but it still looks like me. 😉
I hope you’ll go check out the interview. I feel really honored to have this interview included with the interviews she has done with so many of the outstanding designers in this field. Here’s the link: Snap out of it Jean! There’s beading to be done!

And, by the way…. I just added these earrings to my Etsy shop. I titled them Spring Fever! I wonder why??? Are you itching for spring too?
