Weaving Quilter's Home Page

My name is Daphne Ashling Purpus. I am a single lesbian, an animal lover, vegan, and a supporter of diversity and tolerance. I enjoy quilting and weaving with a passion as well as teaching, reading, writing (especially haiku and other short poetry), video games, and photography. I live with three wonderful cats and three lovely dogs on Vashon Island. I volunteer with Student Link, an alternative high school, tutoring students in variety of subjects and serving as the school's librarian as well. I am there three mornings a week. I also teach a weekly bridge class. I hope this website will let you know something about me and my interests.

Daphne at home.
My journal will now be found, until further notice, at: Daphne's Tanka Diary. This is effective on 5/16/2011. Previous entries will still be located at my journal as before.
