John Quam and Bonnie Quam (1936 - )
|
| John
and Bonnie Quam specialize in needlepoint and petit point clusterwork.
John taught Bonnie jewelry-making when she was 18. Initially, she
cut the stones and he did the silverwork; but eventually they exchanged
tasks, and she did the silverwork while he cut the stones.
