Ask Amee K. Sweet-McNamara why her fine-art jewelry business is called “Amee Runs with Scissors,’’ and she usually just laughs and says, “Because it sounds a whole lot sexier than ‘Amee Eats Paste.’” Working out of her New Hampshire home, Sweet-McNamara makes one-of-a-kind hats, accessories and pieces of wearable-art textile-jewelry using a variety of techniques including “Soutache & Bead Embroidery” which involves hand-stitching yards and yards of soutache braid and hundreds of tiny beads. She teaches internationally, writes about her craft and is a proud member of the League of NH Craftsmen.
