Hi Friends. What exciting things do you have planned for this week? Our daughter is having a sleep over for her 11th birthday. Otherwise we have a pretty quiet week.
Would you like to be interviewed, have your products reviewed or even be featured on our feed? Comment below or email me. We love supporting fellow makers in any way that we can.
Today's Meet the Maker is with Judy from The Cranberry Creek. So without further ado lets get to know Judy. Today, I am allowing Judy to take over my blog. Enjoy!
Hi, I’m Judy from The Cranberry Creek and I’ve been crafting since I was about four years old – making clothes for my Barbie dolls with help from my mom and aunts. I’ve dabbled in counted cross stitch, embroidery and sewing clothes but crochet is the craft that I find the most relaxing.A friend saw a blanket that I was working on and encouraged me to sell on Etsy. At first I sold scarves and baby blankets but then found my niche in selling character hats. My Little Pony hats, Star Wars, Shimmer and Shine, Octonauts, PJ Masks and Little Charmers have all been very successful lines.
The most fun part of selling my crochet items is designing new hats. I love talking to children and finding out which cartoon or movie characters capture their attention and then seeing how I can make the yarn take on the features of those characters. And it’s an excuse to watch cartoons.
During the day I’m a speech pathologist in a special education school. That means I talk all day! In the evenings, it’s just me and the yarn, creating something special.
My plans for The Cranberry Creek are to be able to increase production so I can keep up with demand. There’s still time to place an order before the holidays.

Thank you for sharing Judy. It has been great to get to know you better and your character hats are adorable.
