Hear I go say something about GrandmasCrafts. Well I started GrandmasCrafts about a little over a couple of years ago. I lost my job of 8 years with a catalog company, what was I going to do. Then I was diagnoised with Cancer and unable to work. Being a wife of 37 years and Mother of 4, Grandmother of 14, I decided that I needed to do something with myself and so I started working with my hands on all kinds of crafty items. I have always loved sewing, knitting and crocheting.

My passion is making soft sculpture cloth baby dolls, I started making them when my oldest daughter Julie was in elementery school, they were having a craft festival and I met other mothers that made Miss Martha's original soft sculpture baby doll and I love them that was the start or should I say an addictson,  everyone who held them commented on how soft and cuddly they were and what a great gift for their child, I made alot of them. Years went by and my children grew up and having children of their own. These dolls were made for all of my grandchildren.. Then after losing my last job,  I started surfing the internet, for days and days for something to do and when I discovered this website called DinkyBaby Soft Sculture Cloth Dolls,  want to start your own business and I knew that was what I was looking for. I contacted the owner Vicki Riley, Owner and Designer of DinkyBabies and Patterns. I was hooked the minute that I received my first pattern and sewed my first baby doll. Wow was I in love with them.

Several months later I was certified to become a DinkyBaby Distributor. Wow was I excited, received my own little plaque. GrandmasCrafts was then not a just a wish of mine, but it became a realityand things starting to come alive .. just what I have always dreamed about.
