My mom is one of 5 kids and my dad is one of 12 kids. (Yep, that&#8217;s not a typo, you just read that right&#8230;twelve kids!) All of them had their own kids, then their kids had kids&#8230;so, you do the math! Family reunions for us are more like small village festivals! But all kidding aside, one of the areas I&#8217;ve been really fortunate in life is having grandparents, aunts and uncles who have done a lot of research on our family&#8217;s history and genealogy. These stories from the past really help me understand where I come from, and have made me discover that creativity really does run in the family. I&#8217;m calling this post, &#8220;It Runs in the Family &#8211; Part 1&#8221; because I&#8217;d like to include\u00a0a few different posts in this series highlighting some of my relatives that have truly inspired me.<\/p>\n<p>This first post is dedicated to my Great-Grandma Amy Rowe (on my mother&#8217;s side of the family) and her amazing gift for creativity.

Growing up on a farm in the middle of the Great Depression was tough, but it taught great-grandma the skill sets she used her entire life &#8211; being resourceful was very important during her childhood and that carried on into adulthood.<\/p>\n<p>She was fortunate enough to be sent into Milwaukee to live with another Danish family where she attended 4 years of high school and learned Latin &amp; Math. This was considered to be very fortunate for a woman in this time period.<\/p>\n<p>After graduation, she met &amp; married my great-grandfather, Earl Rowe, who was a farmer and also, an excellent welder. At first they lived on a farm in North Lake, later moving more permanently to a farm in the town of Oconomowoc. (My aunt &amp; uncle bought that farm and still live there today!) They raised 3 children, a girl and two boys &#8211; one of which is my Grandpa Lee Rowe (or Papa Ole as we &#8220;affectionately&#8221; call him.)<\/p>\n<p>My great-grandma&#8217;s love for creating things stemmed from when she was younger, but ultimately came in real handy as a farmer&#8217;s wife &amp; mother of three. She was gifted in sewing and mending especially, but had a love for all things art &amp; craft related. The dining room table was often covered in various projects she had going on simultaneously, and she even converted her front dining room into a small sewing and crafting corner with dresser drawers she handmade using cardboard and old knobs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"254\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/index.php\/2015\/11\/22\/it-runs-in-the-family-part-1\/grandmas-craft-room\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?fit=1050%2C1035&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1050,1035\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Grandma&amp;#8217;s craft room\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?fit=300%2C296&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?fit=1024%2C1009&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-254\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?resize=300%2C296&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Grandma's craft room\" width=\"300\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?resize=300%2C296&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?resize=1024%2C1009&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Grandmas-craft-room.jpg?w=1050&amp;ssl=1 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She would often cut out ideas she saw for craft or sewing projects, and paste them inside old copies of LIFE magazines, serving as a scrapbook of sorts.

She was incredibly gifted and I am very fortunate to still have several items that she made for me as a child. Handmade dresses, dolls, wall hangings, quilts&#8230;I cherish them as they continue to remind me of her. She was the one who taught me to sew. She taught me to let my creativity be my guide.<\/p>\n<p>It was a sad time for our family when she was diagnosed with Acute Lympho Blastic\u00a0Leukemia back in 1996. By the time the doctors discovered she had it, they gave her only 2 months to live. At 84 years old, she died peacefully at her own home, surrounded by the family that loved her most.<\/p>\n<p>The winter after she passed, the local bazaar that she managed\u00a0for her church every year, dedicated the craft fair in her memory. She had invested so many countless hours into making sure the items sold there were unique, well-made and authentic. Just like the qualities of great-grandma, I hope the items I create for my own shop can somehow measure up.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"257\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/index.php\/2015\/11\/22\/it-runs-in-the-family-part-1\/dedicated-craft-fair\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?fit=1822%2C1170&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1822,1170\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Dedicated craft fair\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?fit=300%2C193&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?fit=1024%2C658&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-257\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?resize=300%2C193&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dedicated craft fair\" width=\"300\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?resize=300%2C193&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?resize=1024%2C658&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/havealittlefaithblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Dedicated-craft-fair.jpg?w=1822&amp;ssl=1 1822w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I come from a really large family.
