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.

Saturday - Start Something new


Just one of the many photos I took today at the fantastic second day of the Clarity Open Days at Ditton Community Centre in Kent.  However, all the others are on my camera so you will have to wait to see those until I can transfer them onto the computer.

What I really want to do tonight is to say a huge thank you to Barbara and the entire Clarity team, those we usually see front of house and those who work so hard in the background.  Each year it gets better and this year was no exception.

Two days superb demos from the best, hours of hints, tips, how to use everything that Clarity excels in.  Anyone who missed it this year, make sure you are there next year. Everyone had a smile on their faces.

Yes, we spent a lot of money over the two days, but the best part was chatting with friends, old and new.  You cannot bottle that great atmosphere.

Thank you, Clarity.  You rock!
