The multi-talented Barbara spent many years in the retail area as owner of Celita’s Yarn Shop and currently spends countless hours as a teacher of knitting, crochet, and all types of needlework. She also excels in beaded knitting, which led her to the art of beaded jewelry. Most of her jewelry is geometric in design, drawing from her experience in canvas embroidery.
