Welcome to my blog

I hope you enjoy reading my posts, and please leave me a comment. I always enjoy reading them, and will try to visit you in return.

For security reasons for me and for you, I would appreciate it if you would leave your name on your comments.

You are welcome to copy any of my designs, as long as you do not take credit for them yourself. I am very happy for you to sell them. If I have used anyone else's design, I always try to give credit where it is due. If I have missed anything, please let me know and I will put things right.


This is intended to be mainly about my crafting stories, as a personal record of what I do. However, I interpret crafting quite widely, not just paper crafting but other things too. I have a butterfly mind and like to change from one thing to another depending on what I feel like on a given day - knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, cards, baking and several others, including my favourite right now, parchment, both traditional skills and Groovi, very relaxing and calming to do.

I have decided to put some structure into my blog so that each day will have something of a theme.
Monday- for Mindfulness; Tuesday - Tidy Up Day; Wednesday - What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday; Thursday - Technique and Tips; Friday - Finish Off Day; Saturday - Start Something New; Sunday - Anything Goes
These themes are not hard and fast and will be changed if I feel the need.

Finish Off Friday - maybe!

I am trying to keep Friday as the day I tackle some of my many UFO's.  I am not sure how it is going to work out today.

I reckon Hochanda is going to do a take over bid.  We have Leonie doing two programmes using Clarity stencils, which should be good.  Just a thought!  I am looking forward to seeing Leonie and the lovely Sam Crowe together at the Open Days in June.  If you want a fantastic crafting event, the Clarity Open Days (June in Kent and September up at Leyburn) are brilliant.

Then we have the hour of painting with Matthew Palmer to raise funds for Marie Curie.  That should be fun.  If I get that finished, I will be happy.

I hope all those who have slipped over today soon recover from their accidents, whether inside or outside on the ice.  Take care, all of you.  This weather is the time to snuggle up inside and stay safe.

Have put all the shows on to record as its one of those days when we are in & out all day with cars going to the garage & eye tests.
Stay safe & warm & enjoy the programmes x
