The internet was just getting started and I was happily fumbling around. I came across a crafter from Australia -Looby Lou and I was hooked. Her first creations were called Stuffies and everybody got on board. She had originated a blog called A Month of Softies and every month she would come up with a monthly theme for us. It was a lot of fun.
I started at the same time Etsy was created- In other words as soon as it came out.
I still love Etsy.
