ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Catherine Elizabeth Swift is retired with her husband Ted in Woodstock, Ontario. As a teacher for twenty-five years, she has always enjoyed sharing her stories, songs and poetry. Her family and two cats have been a tremendous influence on her writing. She has prepared a picture book series for special needs students, numerous cat stories, a children’s picture book, Gramme’s Rainy Day Quilt and another poetry collection for seniors. A Stitch in Rhyme came about as a result of her introduction to the Ingersoll Creative Arts Centre and the Oxford Quilters’ Guild, which cultivated in her a new passion - quilt­ing. Now, she divides her time between stitching and rhyme.

Catherine has had five poems and two articles published in the Chats Canada Cats magazine, as well as five poems in A Time For Rhyme. Her poems have been broadcast on CBC and have appeared in a variety of Canadian newspapers. She has won four separate awards for her poetry. This is her first book, but definitely not her last.
