Sit back and enjoy the story of how Emily started Ozark Modern Crafting in 2020.

I’m Emily Cross, a crafts educator and fiber artist from the Ozarks. This place is where I share what I create out of what I love most: the beauty of nature and our place in it, reclaiming modernity which empowers the future through learning and growing, and crafts like quilting, crochet, embroidery, and much more. From these passions I create art, inspiration, reflections, tips, tutorials, essays, guides, and more.
Whether you’re here to learn something new, rekindle a love for handmade beauty, or find inspiration for your own creative practice, I hope Ozark Modern Crafting becomes a place where you connect with what you want to create out of what you love most.
