Combining the hand processes of weaving, knitting, felting and quilting with the natural fibers of yarn and fabric, Linda Brown creates beautiful pieces of artwork and home decor textiles to last for generations.
I live in Portland, Oregon and landed here 12 years ago from the east coast. My day job was in material development and trims in apparel at Nike.
I have a passion for textiles that manifests itself as fabric , yarn , vintage textiles overflowing from storage areas throughout the house and my studio in the back garden.
I live in a 50’s modern house on a dead-end street with a huge Japanese style garden and pond.
I love to cook gourmet and farm to table meals, as my mother had a catering business and I grew up around delicious food. I make a killer Paella.
I speak fluent French.
I love to travel and have visited most continents and hope to visit the Scandanvian countries and Oaxaca , Mexico soon once Covid19 is over .
I hate cats but love my “niece dog” Gracie to bits!
I love cross country skiing as growing up in upstate New York it was de riguer. I like hiking tennis and swimming laps .
