My First Project

This is the very first project I ever crocheted! I decided to learn how to crochet on something I would use and/or keep.... and maybe because I have a little bit of 'baby fever.'  These are 0-3 mo baby booties.




Please leave me a comment if you are interested in some of the booties! They make a wonderful baby shower gift!

Hello and Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my new blog! I'm so happy you stopped by! I never thought I would actually have a place to call my very own on this big, vast internet, but here I am! I am so excited to have you here and join me in my crocheting adventures!



To introduce myself, my name is Quincy, and I am a self-taught crochet enthusiast! To give a brief background, I hail from Huntington Beach, California, and I'm the youngest of eleven kids: seven boys and four girls in total. When I was 10, I moved to Brainerd, Minnesota with my 3 sisters and 2 brothers, where we lived on a 26-acre hobby farm (cows, pigs, and all!). It was in the 7th grade where I met my husband, Chuck. We had always good been friends, but we didn't date until our senior year of high school.

My desires to pursue my education brought me to Shawnee, Kansas when I was 19, and I lived there for 3 years before marrying Chuck in 2007 and moving to Newport News, Virginia, where he was stationed at the Norfolk Naval Station for the past 4 years. While living in Virginia, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Christopher Newport University with my Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry.

We now live in the beautiful state of North Carolina!

I will be posting more about my crocheting projects, so be sure to check back frequently to see what's new!
