When Judy Harper lost her granddaughter Madeline several years back , I designed this little Squiggee fairy Rollie and named her Madeline....It is a great comfort to think that Judy is now united with her soul mate.....and they are filling heaven with rolling laughter ....Judy will be missed , but will always be a part of Squiggeeland.....her energy and knowledge I found a great help early on...and I don't think I will ever be able to tie a bead on a canvas without thinking of her.... I have a wonderful heart she worked for me to treasure and of course the models she did for Squiggee Designs...they will always be treasured and remind me of my dear friend and fellow artist ...gone but never forgotten...she was a Cancer like myself and she shared my love of jewelry and all that sparkles.. you can read Judy's Obituary by logging on to Tributes.com/obituary...
I am a working artist. I have been designing needlepoint since 1972,when after graduating college , I took an apprenticeship at American Needlework Center in Georgetown, DC. I found my calling and have never looked back.I have designed for the Washington Cathedral and the White House and continue a large custom business . In 2000 I started to design for wholesale under the name BY GAIL .In 2004 Squiggee designs was born and introduced on eBay. These designs appeal to me, just fun! Squiggee opened up the world embellishments to me. I have been married to a very wonderful master cabinet and furniture designer going on 37 years.He is the only man that has not bored me.He has a wicked sense of humor and a loving nature,we are well matched.Since his early retirement in 2008, he joined the Squiggee Family , managing the office and he is our link to the shops. He has become such an intracranial part of the day to day running of Squiggee Designs , that shops refer to him as " Mr. Squiggee". We have a Chi-weenie named Twinkle , a mix of Doxie and Chihuahua and her older brother, a six year old black miniature poodle named Omar , who sports with a small white goatee.
