Chris Pickup
Chris Pickup started drawing at 18 months, sewing with her mom at age four, and has been creating as long as she can remember. She's a wife and mother to four children, who supply her with almost endless inspiration.
She is a licensed audiologist, but find her greatest joys in her family and creating. She and her husband are building a new home, including the framing, roofing, electrical and finish work. She not only sews, but can also install baseboard, tile, and paint.
She's blessed to stay home with her children. Craft blogging has opened up a world of ideas and friendship for her, which she loves to be a part of. She believes that to create is a divine desire, and hopes that as she shares her adventures in creating and family life, she can spark another person's creativity.
