Who
we are

We are the Follis', Shari and Sean. Turning Stitches was created to help us share one of our passions with you.

After 20-years of pouring most of our creativity into remodeling our old house, we can finally pour that creativity into other endeavors.

Our interests are still very much anchored in our home so most of our creations will be home decor related.

Shari will be sharing a variety of creations from fabric and fiber works to other mixed media items.

Sean will most often be creating woodturnings at his lathe among other woodworking projects.
