New Beginnings

I joined my mom's buisness about 7 months ago, to take a much needed break from my nursing career.  I had no expectations of staying.  Initially, I felt,  I was an extra pair of hands to help where needed.  I am the eldest of Sue's four children, and have never taken much of an interest in sewing or creating.  It's an ongoing joke that my two brothers, Andrew and Jason, received all the talent from the gene pool, and that my sister Aimee and I received absolutely nothing.  Several years ago I began to knit and realized what a mind-numbing therapy session it was.  As a person whose brain never stops running with a continual "To Do" list, knitting became a 'me' time as well as a time to switch off my brain.  Over the years I have realized what a gift my mom has; not only as a designer, but in the way she touches peoples lives.  She has a way of reaching into your creative soul.  She takes you on a journey, gives you confidence in your creations, provides a safe place, an outlet, takes you away from your troubles, your life.  Over the past 7 months, I too have experienced, the life changing gift by my mom's hands.  Sue Spargo, Twee, is something we have talked about launching for the last few months.  We wanted to provide all our loyal customers a sneak peek into the studio and a first glance at upcoming fabrics, notions and treasures before posted to the online store, www.suespargo.com.  I am excited for the opportunity to share new products and take you behind the scenes, to the chaos, that is suespargo.com!
