Crafter of Month for April is Diane Denk
"My love for crocheting started long ago when I began working full time. After lunch the experienced crocheters would teach beginners how to crochet, it grew from there. Through the years I've made many things for boys, since I have a son and now two grandsons. It is so rewarding to make little girl outfits in pinks and purples and sell them in the shop."
