About the Author

Thank you for visiting my website. I’m Theone Matthews — a sister, mother, grandmother, nurse and passionate creator. My love for gardening and crafting began in childhood and has grown with me through every season of life.

A Journey of Faith & Creativity

Several years ago, while praying for guidance, I began to imagine intricate crochet patterns. I picked up my hook, experimented, and learned through trial and error until I perfected designs that felt both beautiful and meaningful. The process was challenging but deeply rewarding, and it ignited a desire to share these gifts with others. That spark led me to write books that combine my passion for nurturing plants with my love of creating handmade gifts.

Rooted in Compassion

As a nurse, I’ve seen how nature and creativity can heal. Raised‑bed gardens allow gardeners to grow plenty of food in small spaces and even make gardening accessible for those with mobility limitations (ngb.org). Crocheting is a meditative craft that many people use to manage stress, feel calmer and happier (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). My books are a way of offering practical tools and inspiration so you can experience these benefits too.

Staying Connected

I don’t use social media, but I’d love to hear from you. If you have questions about my books or would like to share your gardening or crochet journey, please reach out via the contact form. Your stories and feedback inspire my future projects.
