We added quilting cottons to our inventory in the early 80's, but we never lost touch with our love for clothes sewing -- sometimes you need a little instant gratification. We're finding that lots of others who have been away from clothes construction are "coming home" too. In the mid 80's, I was joined by my sister, Julie. She brought with her all those "business skills" that are so necessary. After a few years we decided to incorporate and both have become equal shareholders. |

 In the early 90's, we opened a second store From Our House to Yours,
located in the historic Rawson home, built circa 1895. That store specialized
in home decorating - home dec fabrics, new and old quilts - antiques and
accessories for the home and garden and was well known for the frozen
cappuccino we offered customers. |

We speak of it here in the past tense, because we decided to combine the two businesses. So, From Our House to Yours closed in January of 2000. The historic Rawson home became the home of Creations. Over the years, we've carried on some of the traditions known to the house. Something else has changed in the last 32 years. For years after we opened, when people asked us "where is your store located?", we'd inevitably get a followup question, "Kerrville, where is that?". Now most people respond, "Oh, Kerrville, how lucky you are to live there! I love it there!". And we agree - it is a great place to live and work and lots of fun to visit! So, come see us soon... |

Creations was established in 1978 during the "polyester doubleknit
era". I (Kathy) opened the doors with all natural fibers -- not one
"poly" among us!! That was quite revolutionary during the 70's.
We were often told, "I'll be back when you get some doubleknit!"
We didn't and we're not sure if they did. (The picture left is of our original location.)
