Instructor Bio:

Stephanie has been a "hooker" since the age of 9. Originally from Montreal, she learned to crochet in grade 4 and was hooked. Stephanie started her business Dixon Chicks to showcase her crochet work. Her interest in beads took root while exploring her Aunt Penny's jewellery box and craft room while on her annual vacation to the Adirondacks of New York State. Stephanie says, "I have always loved the connectedness of all artisanal crafts and how they intersect, how we can grow as artists by dabbling in other mediums. I also love the interplay of colour and beading allows me to have adventures with colour, size and texture combinations". Stephanie is a proud member of the Toronto Bead Society and the Toronto Crochet Guild (aka Toronto Hook-ups). In recognition of her volunteerism, she was recently appointed a Fellow of McLaughlin College at York University.
