it's nice to meet you! my name is kate barba-vargas. i love all things cozy, snuggly and cute! since you're here, i'm sure we have that in common.
 

hugs n' stitches came to be all thanks to my reignited love for crochet. after having crocheted on-and-off for 15+ years, i realized that the things that i love to crochet the most are plushies! no matter how old i get, i still enjoy collecting stuffed animals and giving them a loving home. now that i know how to make some of my own, i can't stop. the sad thing: i don't have room for all of them! that's where you come in - these cuties would love to become yours!
 

beyond crochet, i spend a majority of my time writing, reading or playing video games. if i'm not doing any of those things, i'm most likely buried under piles of yarn. adding crochet back into my list of hobbies has given me another creative outlet that brings a smile to my face. i hope that my creations can bring a smile to your face as well!
