I am Mary Maynard, and creating CLASSIC NEEDLE ART of all kinds, including crocheting, knitting (especially lace knitting), quilting, custom sewing, and tatting has been my hobby as well as passion for most of my life. I have also indulged in several kinds of embroidery. The time has come and it is now possible to share the many years experience, creativity, and labor.

Welcome to my web site. I sincerely hope that you are able to find something suitable to your needs, whether it be a finished product, instructions for a project you wish to work, or the opportunity to request something created just for you.

Please visit my family page and meet my family. I am a very proud Grandma now and would love to share this joy with you.

Although needle art has been my passion for most of my life, I was a sales representative for AVON for thirteen years. I am offering the accumulation of business demos, awards, surplus product here. Many items included in the inventory are now one of a kind.
