(is that even a real word???) WOW! I can hardly believe I've had enough stuff to ramble on about for a whole year. I started this blog as a way of letting off a bit of creative steam and showing Jackie what I've been making without having to clog up her inbox with hundreds of photographs! Hehe!

I'll tell you a little bit about myself (for those who don't know me in RL): I'm a 30 year old who has always been into making stuff (just ask my mum!). Drawing was a firm favourite as a youngster and things involving glitter and papier mache. As a grown up crafter - hand made cards kept me out of trouble for quite a while, but right now I'm into sewing with a little knitting on the side. I can't sit and do nothing, a spare 10 minutes can easily be used to cut out some felt shapes or knit a few rows of a scarf! I enjoy our garden, I like cycling in the summer and spending time with my lovely husband and our two naughty cats. I'm a happy-kind-of-gal and I like our life (except for ironing!). Does that sound a bit cheesy? Ah, well......I like cheese too!

I've enjoyed the last year, I really have and plan on rambling on for a long while yet! To celebrate me waffling on, here is a picture of me eating a waffle....

...and also I'm going to have a prize draw. All you have to do to be entered is leave a comment and I will draw a name out of the hat on the 7th of March! The lucky winner will receive some of my hand made goodies. That gives you plenty of time to think of something to say! :)

I will leave you with this photograph of my first hat (in progress). Just a few more rows and I start to decrease...increasing is the next project! Bye for now!

(sorry for the bad light - I promise to start taking better photographs!)
