My name is Maureen and I'm a grateful stay at home mom to two fabulous kids (most of the time) who are my joy, my heart and my soul and also part of my shop name...the ME in my store name is for them, Michael and Elizabeth who are a huge part of my inspiration for opening up my shop. I want them to believe in themselves and their dream and follow their heart. I can't teach them if I don't live it, which is why I opened this shop.
Sure would be sweet in a Norman Rockwell kind of way if I could say I have warm memories of my mom or grandmother painstakingly teaching me to crochet but that's not my story... I'm actually self-taught. While on a family vacation in the Pocono's, I wanted something to keep m busy once the kids were put to bed and we could sit by the fire, so I got the brilliant idea to learn to crochet and off I went to the store to get yarn, a hook and a book and thus began my love of crocheting. ( I still have the first scarf I made back then). Based on how crooked that scarf came out, I never believed I'd be here now, but determination and passion are powerful traits to have.
I'm grateful that I can begin and end each day with a hook in my hand and the joy of creating something myself.
Thank you very much for visiting my shop, my sincere hope is that you love my products as much as I do.
