About Me
My name is Samantha Ledesma, but you can call me Sam or Sammie! I am a 32 year old Asian American who resides in Los Angeles, California. I started crocheting over 10 years ago and have been "hooked" ever since. Crocheting has helped me unravel when I'm stressed, and has given me a creative outlet.
​
I enjoy selling at craft fairs, pop-ups, and conventions. I have also been getting into designing my own patterns. I draw my inspiration from my favorite anime/TV/movies, as well as food and animals. As you can tell, I also enjoy puns!
Why Yarn Bubbles? Name Origin
At first, I originally came up with it because crochet involves yarn, and my favorite Powerpuff girl is Bubbles. But digging in deep, there is much more to it.
​
When I hear the word "bubbles" I think about cute little creations that come from a bubble wand that bring joy and are lovely to look at. Those are the same feelings my crochet hook and yarn bring to others.
​
Also, crochet is my favorite form of therapy. I become immersed in my own little "bubble" with my yarn as a temporary mental refuge from the world. Thus, Yarn Bubbles is the perfect name for what my artwork does for myself and for others!
