About Julie
My name is Julieanne Pitts, owner of Traveling Fiber Artist- LaBaa Yarns
I live in Florida where I have continued with all the fiber arts I have always loved doing. I continue to teach others all the skills I have developed over my entire life. I can’t remember when I didn’t make toys, sew, knit, crochet and create.
I teach at Cypress Falls in North Port, Florida, A Good Yarn, Sarasota, Florida and Searsport Rug Hooking in Rotunda, Florida. May 2022, I will be teaching again at John C. Campbell Folk School. Brasstown, North Carolina.
Background
In the 1990’s I left the corporate world and decided to become serious about having a business doing what I loved. I took many classes to advance my skills. I learned more about Knitting, Crocheting, Heirloom sewing, Smocking, Quilting and discovered Artistry Teddy Bear Making. I became a Certified Spare Bear Parts instructor, selling their products and teaching. I became involved in the Teddy Bear world, designing my own Teddy Bear patterns and I started doing Teddy Bear shows. In 2003 my Teddy Bear studio and classroom was built where for many years I taught and created.
In the early 2000 I decided to learn Spinning, Weaving and Rug Hooking.
In 2007, I expanded my business by opening a yarn shop on the Granbury, Texas old town square. A few years later I moved my business to the Yeats-Duke Museum, where I became the Curator of the Yeats-Duke Museum for the city of Granbury. At the Yeats-Duke Museum I also demonstrated many fiber related equipment and supplies. I demonstrated and taught spinning, weaving, hooking along with knitting and crocheting.
I have retired as Curator of the museum and moved to Florida. I love Florida and continue to teach.
I make Memory Bears while recycling fur coats. Samples are shown in the Teddy Bear section.
LaBaa Yarns is my traveling business and online. Kits are created from my yarns and supplies. I teach Knitting, Crocheting, Weaving, Spinning & Punch Needle.
More information is under the LaBaa and Teddy Bear section.
