I started crafting a very young age. I remember sewing buttons on things while my mother made my sister and my clothes and crocheted countless blankets. My father is a home-builder/cabinet-maker/vintage-car restorer. I quickly developed a love for making things; hats, bags, quilts, pies, you name it.
