The Deadline

On Saturday 2nd June I will be finally taking my craft items into the big wide world. I am attempting to create some form of continuity within the items I have selected to exhibit. Creating a 'collection' is an idea I wish to investigate further for the future.

The Social Life

Once upon a time... I used to have a social life. But recently, a typical Saturday night for me is spent in my house drinking cups of tea, an episode of Poirot playing on my laptop, and surrounded by lots of fabric and tools. For now I am okay with this. I enjoy working hard making things, and get no greater satisfaction than knowing that in the space of 5 hours I can transform an ugly chair into something beautiful. I like watching paint dry and time is precious.

The Appreciation

My Aunt said to me recently "Don't despise the day of small beginnings". I would like to say a very big thank you to all the friends and family who have been supporting me on my craft journey to date. Kind words, critique, bags of scraps, magazines to flick through and cut up; nothing goes un appreciated and I am truly grateful. One day i'll get there.
