Diand has been knitting, sewing, quilting, spinning, or otherwise making something since she was about 10 years old. She has designed knitwear and patterns for a yarn house in Toronto; and you can still find her knitting patterns online and in shops, and one of them even made it into Vogue Knitting as an advertisement for a yarn company!

In recent years Diane began quilting and somehow became addicted to making bags, especially once she discovered cork fabric. She uses only upholstery grade cork that is sourced from Portugal. This cork product is eco-friendly, sustainable, PETA approved, easy to care for, and very durable. Diane pride myself on making one-of-a-kind bags and wallets, using only the finest cork, leather, hardware, and fabrics.
