June 2006: Little Evelyn is born. After operating as Hildy and Lulu for about a year, I have decided to move away from that name and reinvent myself as something more fitting to ME and my crafty self. My new identity came to me while wrestling with insomnia. Who better to be named after than my creative Gram who taught me to sew, cook, and shop?
