Lynn runs a small crafting and sewing business called Genaii Originals. She lives in a log cabin on 10 acres of woods. She married and has raised 11 boys but now just lives alone with her husband who is disabled.

Lynn started out crafting by helping her mom make doll clothes to sell at a local farmers market. As people wanted a larger variety, she began designing all of the clotheing. From there she started making 22" vinyl and cloth dolls which is her biggest love. Lynn also makes teddy bears, blanket buddies, stockings, pin cushions, purses, totes and baby items. She also has taught herself to quilt by doing reseach on the internet. Lynn takes special orders for items which keeps her customers coming back to the craft fairs.

Lynn has found that with Gods help, even with rheumatoid arthritis and fighting cancer, she can still do the sewing and crafting she does that helps support her family.

Lynn also has a website here where you can see more of her doll creations.

If you would like to contact Lynn to congratulate her on a job well done, you can email her at genaii0@cybrzn.com

For her commitement and dedication to her family and her crafts, Lynn has been awarded the Country Church Crafts Award of Excellence!
