craftgrrlokay after reading that horrible article where our love for crafting has been warped into some sort of reaction to life after 9/11/01, I decided to work on a letter to send to the columnist not in the know at Charlotte.com.
But before I complete my letter, I just want to hear from all you crafty fearless chicas (and chicos) out there who hold their crochet hooks, and knitting needles, glue guns and exacto knives proudly and not in terror:
Why do you craft?
I craft because it keeps my creative brain juices flowing. BEcause it relaxes me. Because crocheting is a craft that has been passed down from my great-grandma to my grandma to my mama and to me. I craft because a handmade modge podge box with homemade stationary tells them you really care. I craft because I am imaginative. I craft because I love a good challenge. I craft because it makes me happy. i craft because I can.
