James Creek Sutlery
We are the Eddy family, Stu, Michele, Theresa (Eddy) Sauvé, and Shawn. Our daughter Theresa named James Creek Sutlery after her grandfather, James W. Eddy (pictured). He instilled in his son (Stu - Theresa's dad) a love for the outdoors, and Stu received his aluminum canoe to pass on to
subsequent generations. Hence the canoe in the logo. Grandpa hunted and fished,
taking his sons on many trips to the northern parts of beautiful Michigan.
Theresa never knew her grandfather, as he passed away seven years
before she was born, but his memory lives on. Grandma Eddy,
"Skip" (pictured), has shared many stories about her
beloved husband. Therefore, James Creek Sutlery
is dedicated to Theresa's Grandpa Jim.
Founded in the summer of 2007 at our local Lapeer Farmer’s Market, and originally known as
"The Stitching Post", we made and sold clothing ranging from girls’ prairie dresses
and pinafores, to men’s Colonial American frock coats, and ever popular
denim quilts. Today, as Theresa has recently been married, the
clothing line and sewn items have temporarily
been placed on hold.
However, our product line has been expanded to include home made laundry detergent, home made pioneer (an 1870's recipe) basic bar soap, and certified organic spices, herbs, aged sugars,
and various colorful culinary salts from around the world. Historically speaking,
spices have been so valuable they have been used as currency
and sometimes valued higher than gold & silver.
