Carol Ventura discovered tapestry crochet while in the Peace Corps in Guatemala. Inspired by those textiles, she started tapestry crocheting bags with her own motifs. Taking a bead crochet class sparked a new way of working. Carol began to create two sided baskets and entered a new world of creating. Carol is a retired professor of Art History, but continues to teach and explore a variety of media.
