There is always a beginning and for my eldest daughter's love of fiber it was at the age of 7. Larissa will be 29 this month, almost 30...wow, that is crazy. During this time of our lives I owned/operated a little herbary 1994 to 2000 and during that time also sat up at local herb shows where she wove potholders. Her fingers were constantly weaving loops into beautiful color combos and patterns engaging her audience. I will have to try and dig up those photos at some point soon!

| Daughters Larissa, Thea and friend Nickie at a local Fall Festival in Cook Forest knitting and dry felting 2003 perhaps |
Today a package landed on our doorstep full of handcrafted goods. She has been felting flowers for sometime now gifting her Mom one of these lovelies for her birthday. This posie can be pinned or clipped on sweaters, coats, hats or even shoes, love them.
