She is the author of three books published by Krause Publications: 'Soul Mate Dolls: Dollmaking as a Healing Art' (2000), 'Storytelling with Dolls, a collaboration with Elinor Peace Bailey (2003) and the soon to be released 'Creative Crocheted Dolls: 50 Whimsical Designs.'
Noreen has also self-published 17 books. Her designs have appeared in many magazines (Interweave Knits, Vogue Knitting, Soft Dolls and Animals, Great American Crafts, Ladies Home Journal, Needlework and Crafts, Handmade, American Home Craft, Canadian Living).
Noreen takes great joy in inspiring the creativity and igniting the imaginations of her readers and workshop participants. She and her husband (a musician) have been married for 25 years and have a daughter (an artist) and son (a film maker). They also share their lives with many well-loved animal companions.
Noreen has just initiated a new project that she is very excited about, called the Rain Doll Project. Information about the project can be found at: http://www.crone-findlay.com/raindoll.html
