"I started sewing and crafting over 25 years ago, and it has always been a love of mine. I started Flamingo Toes as a way to keep track of all my adventures, and I have found a love for blogging that I never expected. I didn't start out planning on any one particular niche, but I find myself focusing more and more on sewing, embroidery, and jewelry making. I have learned new things and I am constantly challenged and inspired by my readers and the other great blogs out there."

"My first memory of sewing was on my grandmother's quilt when I was three years old. It's been a tumultuous relationship ever since, full of victories and losses. These days, if there's a craft technique I haven't tried, it's probably on my wish list. I want to inspire my blog visitors to jump in, stretch their creativity and not be afraid to make mistakes along the way. When I'm not on my blog, Crafty Staci, you'll find me at my shop, where I focus on handmade accessories for makers, artists, photographers, teachers and people on the go."
