My adventure started years ago at the knee of my mother who taught me and my sister how to crochet, knit, sew and most importantly for me quilt. It wasn't until I was married and had my first child that it all seemed to come together, my daughter was the model for a lot of my earlier adventures in sewing and quilting and then my son came along to enjoy the benefits of it as well.
My first Etsy shop opened in January of 2010 at the begging of my children to do something with all the items I was making besides putting them on their beds, and in my poor daughters case, putting more into a already stuffed hope chest. My second shop opened a year later with the fabric, notions and patterns to make some of the quilts and table runners that I was selling in the first shop and actually took off better then the first shop did, so we combined both shops into one.
In 2012 we introduced the custom embroidered baby items, which my kids tell me is my outlet for not having grandchildren yet, and custom Military items which is my outlet for dealing with my son being in the Military and my way to help one of the organizations that has helped my son and countless other Military personnel through countless wars and peace time operations, which is the USO.
I currently contribute 10% of all Ready to Ship Military purchases to the USO to help those in all branches of the Military.
Any items listed on the web tabs can be brought to one of the local craft fairs for purchase if you are planning on visiting.
