I’m very excited to feature our next Wifey for Life sponsor, Ashley, of Lady Ashley Designs. I met Ashley through a women’s networking group, WIM, that I co-founded with two of my friends. As I got to know Ashley more I was immediately inspired by her faith and the fact that she was completely self taught. Listen, I tried crocheting and as a person with two left thumbs, it ain’t easy! When I put the word out that I was looking for sponsors Ashley excitedly emailed me wanting in.

Ashley makes the most beautiful crochet items. From hats to socks, baby clothes to doggy wear. If you can think of it, chances are she can make it. Ashley is providing all of our Wifeys with fingerless mittens just in time for the cool Autumn air. I’m really excited to share her beautiful work with everyone. Read on to learn more about Ashley and for pictures of her work.

And don’t forget to register! Tickets are only $23 and it’s totally worth it!! Trust me.
