Meet Melissa and Danielle

Melissa and daughters

Danielle and sons

*What does working at Starlight Stitches mean to you?

Melissa: Working at St St feels amazing everyday I am there. I love having the opportunity to work outside of the home, with moms that share similar parenting styles, and to have my kids right there. I feel so blessed that this has happened to me! To be excited to come to work, learn new things, and bring home some extra income.

Danielle: It means that I am able to do what I have a passion to do, crafting. As well as being able to have my kids near by. The income helps with my fabric addiction.

*What is your creative method or medium of choice?

Melissa: I love to create using fabric. I have not done much at home with three little ones (besides Halloween costumes), so having a place several times a week to get the creative juices flowing has been so inspiring for more home craft projects.

Danielle: I love sewing! Mostly its clothing for my kids, sometimes things for me. I also like knitting, crocheting and my all time favorite is scrapbooking!
 

*What is your favorite thing about being a parent?

Melissa: There are so many favorites about being a parent. Watching my kids interact and play together right now is what comes to mind. I love how they challenge me everyday to be a better person. 

Danielle: I love watching my boys grow and learn new things everyday.

*What is your most embarrassing moment (that you're willing to admit to us)?

Melissa:
Gosh, I really can't think of an embarrassing moment.

Danielle: When I went into labor with my second son. I was laying on the exam table and my water broke. To which I said " I think i just peed, or my water broke". then about 15 minutes later another large gush came and it went all the way to the end on the bed, dripping all over the floor.
