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.

Sunday - Anything Goes

No crafting at all so far today, but it has been a great day.  Once a year, four of us from high school get together for the day, taking turns at hosting the day.  This year, it was at a small village just outside Much Wenlock in Shropshire.


It is a lovely position, down in the valley, but with a glorious view over the Wrekin and on to Wales.  This is the view from their conservatory.  So much bird and insect life in the garden and the surrounding hedgerows, far more than I ever get.  

We had a lovely meal, with lots of chatting, reminiscing and putting the world to rights, and just catching up on everything that has happened since last year.  A perfect day.  Next year's meeting will be down in Dorset, so I might get the chance to see the sea and even have a paddle.
