I was very lucky in the fact I grew up with both Grandmothers (they passed when I was grown) and two Great Grandmothers (they also passed when I was grown). One Great Grandma crocheted and the other tatted, did "cut work" and Huck Embroidery. I have things from both of them. One Grandmother crocheted with yarn. Grannie sewed, quilted a lot and crocheted with thread. She made tablecloths, runners, etc. and over 20 quilts. Her Mother quilted also. My Mother sewed, quilted and she was known for her knitted Christmas stockings. I started very young doing hand work and made my clothes starting at 10. I crochet (both yarn and thread), needle point, Swedish Weave, Huck Embroidery, quilt and sew. Like Grannie, I never just sit, always something in my hands.
