The Reviews.
The truth is that sometimes I have to pinch myself and make sure this is all real. Could this dream be my reality? It is amazing and makes me work that much harder. It is incredibly humbling and I am grateful to have loyal fans & customers from all over the world. I have customers who have been with me since I first opened my shop on Etsy as well as my designs are also a favorite in Hollywood, beloved by celebrities including Kristen Johnston, Leah Remini, Melissa Gorga as well the designer Isaac Mizrahi, who’s line of stunning yarn was the focus of my 2015 collection, fittingly titled “Isaac.” My patterns have appeared in and on the cover of crochet industry magazines. Even as I typed that it seems unreal. I am deeply grateful.
Most of all though, I was a featured artist in the Etsy Pavilion at the 2013 Chicago One Of A Kind Show and invited back to be a full display artist since, having my work featured in the fashion show each year as well. I was also asked to speak at their event for other handmade small business owners. That was the highlight. A chance to pay it forward and share what I have learned on this incredible journey. Below are a few of my reviews and accolades.
