My name is Eloise and I am passionate about the fiber arts. I have always been creative, wanting to start my own business. We live on a busy road and lemonade stands were never very successful as a kid. How about painting and selling the creations on the porch? Or a lawn concert? Jewelry for Webkinz? (Yes, Webkinz. The little pets that EVERY kid had to have and activate online...) You get the picture...long story short. I've found my niche.
My mom taught me to crochet when I was about five or six years old. When my mom, sisters, and I solidly picked up knitting about six years ago it opened up worlds of creativity and opportunity. I knitted all the time. I constantly tried new patterns and with my motivation and other's help I've made it to where I am today. A crossroads. I'm graduating homeschool and throwing myself into this field. The world where you can squeal and jump up and down in glee when you see a sheep; where you can sit back and remember the tingle that went up your spine when you walked through the 4H gate of Dutchess County Fairgrounds for the first time... the field where my talents and passions lie.
So will you follow my journey? Rejoice in the achievements? Help through the tough spots? Watch and cheer as I pursue my dream?
"She seeks wool and flax, and works with willing hands."- Proverbs 31:13

ReplyDeleteThank you, Carmen, for your lovely comment! =0) You made me smile!
DeleteHello, sweetie! I'm so proud of all you've achieved as you push forward in your fiber-y career!!! You know Daddy, your sibs, and I are behind you 100%. I KNOW the Lord has great and marvelous things planned for you...can't wait to watch as He reveals each one! Hope you get as many readers as Julie did in her cooking blog, so many that readers begin sending you hot sauce. Well, maybe now hot sauce. How 'bout yarn instead? ☺
ReplyDeleteLove you to bits,
Mama
Thank you, Mama! Love you too! I can't wait to see Him reveal each step either! I know that His plan is the best and He will reveal the steps in His timing.
Deletelol To quote Julie, "I have a comment! On my blog!" Except I have three wonderful comments! As a side note... I would greatly appreciate any free yarn people want to send me. I will accept my "fate" as graciously as possible! ;)
