Introducing Mindy Kuen

You may noticed I mentioned Mindy before, like in one of her piece I made.

I met Mindy Kuen through Etsy. She's my first WIST er that we exchange gift for "Christmas in July", and who is full of ideas and energy. So, I decided to feature her.

I began by asking her, can you tell me about your background.
Mindy: I come from a "crafty family" we have always made things from clothing to curtains and everything in-between! They have always been very supportive to me.


Bigib: Why do you use the material you're using to express your creativity.
Mindy: I like fabric because there are SO many things you can do with it! I can decorate my house or myself with it!

Bigib:What's new project you're working on, or anything coming up?
Mindy: Oh my - my list is sooo long right now! I am making some cute key fobs, wristlet bags, aprons and dish gloves! I am also making new jewelry with some great new pieces I have come across.

Bigib: How is your design process.
Mindy:Literally an idea just smacks me in the head thru-out my day. I keep a little notebook in my purse to jot them all down. When it "hits" me like that I get very excited to go home & try it out......

Bigib: Do you innovate?
Mindy: I sure do try to! Some of the wristlets I am making use fun "upcycled" candy-wrappers.
I am so happy to be able to have an outlet for my creativity......I work in an office all day & just love to be able to sit down & make something. It is great also to see people enjoy something you've made.
