Lisa Meadows has been enjoying crochet and other crafts for as long as she can remember. I was raised by my grandmother, who was an amazing woman who had a love of crafting and sharing her talents with others, she said. Lisa s filet crochet animal designs (except for the bear) were inspired by creatures she has viewed from the back porch of her country home in Kentucky, where she and a partner run an upholstery shop.
