Bio: 

Lindsay Welch of El Marie Macramé is a lifelong Hudson Valley resident who is energized by the opportunity to collaborate with her community through fiber art. Lindsay began crafting macramé in early 2017 out of her home in Highland and recently began the venture into turning her love of knots into a small business: offering workshops, attending craft markets, consigning pieces to local shops, and creating custom pieces. Lindsay features locally foraged driftwood and delicate cotton cord in her art that includes wall hangings, earrings, plant hangers, bunting, and accessories.

Cause:  Programs in the Crafts with a Cause! series combine the fun of creating and learning with the joy and fulfillment of giving back- to the earth, to a good cause, to a group doing good work.
