About Me
- Name: 'Zann
- Location: Terre Haute, Indiana, United States
Professor's widow, mother of four, zannma to two. Grew up in Coral Gables, Florida, transplanted to Indiana at age 40, where I saw my first snow and learned to love wool. We homeschooled three of the kids, I helped to create a used bookshop ( Wabash River Books 1996-2005)and became an online bookseller. I started this blog in 2005 to share my mid-life artwork (primarily fiber), poetry and creative explorations. On March 18, 2006 my 20 year-old son Patrick died...and my world irrevocably changed.
On January 7, 2024, my beloved husband Paul Burkett died...and my world irrevocably changed.
I own 72 years now. Life is still very mysterious, magickal, beautiful and sweet and sad.

looks great! i love those bowls!
Oh, I love those bowls, too. They are wonderful. Do you dye your own fiber/fibre? You have such a good eye for color.
Though I'd like to dye my own fiber and yarn, I'm already engaged in so many types of work, I'd think it would be disastrous for me to start another art form.
I get my hand-dyed rovings from other artisans and I like it that I can support their craft work with my purchases. The main people whose roving I've been using are Deb Brandt (dudleyspinner), Bob of Winderwood Farm, and I've taken a liking to Smoky Mountain Fiber. All are on etsy.
I guess you can also use those beautiful crafts as a props on a photo booth and I also love the concept in creating it.
