Company Name: Tammy Hildebrand
Designer Name: Tammy Hildebrand
Home State: North Carolina
Design Specialty: I wouldn't really say I have a specialty. I've done it all at some point or another!
1 How did you first get introduced to your craft?
I learned to crochet from my second grade teacher.
2 What type of patterns do you enjoy designing the most?
Lacy motifs joined as you go for both garments and afghans.
3 What are you most known for?
I'd probably have to say crocheting with my feet. Everyone seems to have heard that story!
4 How do you jump-start your creativity?
I find inspiration in everything, and nothing at all. I can see afghans in bathroom floor designs, color schemes in nature or a sweater based on a pattern from a man’s tie.
5 What season inspires you the most?
I love autumn with the pumpkins and leaves. The colors are awesome.
6 On average, how many new patterns do you design each year?
I really have no idea. Enough that I have never had time to count how many there are! I design non-stop.
7 Is there another craft you'd like to try your hand at?
I've dabbled with brick carving. I would love to explore that further.
8 What is your favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
Church with my family, out to lunch and then family time. We recently painted our dining room table with each of my daughters, my husband and myself painting a section with anything we wanted for a Sunday afternoon activity.
9 What three items do you always have in your craft bag?
Tape measure, paper and pen to write the pattern as I create it and sharp scissors.
