WHAT IS THE VERY FIRST CRAFT YOU REMEMBER MAKING?

A hand sewn quilt for my baby dolls! It was probably a 6×9” quilt made out of fabric remnants from Little House On The Prairie dress up costumes my mom made Anna and me.

FAVORITE CRAFT SUPPLY?

That’s easy! HANDS down… a measuring tape!

FAVORITE CRAFT GENRE?

That’s NOT so easy! I think my favorite changes just as often as the seasons change. I’m currently LOVING Glowforge projects though.

FAVORITE QUOTE/LIFEMANTRA?

Romans 12:9-18, NLT

HOBBIES?

Crafting and camping are LIFE! I also enjoy photography and going to baseball games with my family. Quality time is how my love tank is filled, so really anything at all with my family and I’m on board and happy!

FAVORITE FOOD?

Have you ever listened to Rach and I chat? This may be the hardest question of all time! I’m a lover of most foods! Fondue is ALWAYS a good idea in my opinion, but if I could have any meal at all right now I would choose a good ol’ southern cooked meal by my little Tennessee Mountain Mamaw.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR FAMILY!

I met my husband Wayne in 1987. We started dating in 2005 (my senior year in high school) and got married in 2007. Wayne has been a courier with FedEx Express since 1999, is a behind the scenes work horse here at O&L, and is affectionately known here in The Flock as “Dumpster Dad”. Wayne and I welcomed our incredibly sweet son Beckett (a shameless Momma’s boy) into our family when he was born in 2013. Our spit-fire daughter Fallon (my mini BFF who is very likely more creative than me) was added to the family when she was born in 2016. We are imperfect people, but are loved by a perfect God. We aim each day to love others the way that He does.
