Hello and Welcome

Hello and Welcome to my new blog.

I've created this to share what inspires me as a crafter, my creations, works in progress and anything else relating to handmade crafts.

I've been creating things for as long as I can remember.  I was taught to knit as a young girl by my Mum and Nan and I've loved making things ever since.

I knit all sorts of things, clothes, toys, dolls clothes, items for the home, hats, gloves and scarfs.  I also love to sew, my favourite is applique although this year I've decided I'm going to have a go at making some clothes. 

My other goal this year is to learn to crochet.  I can make a basic chain but that's as far as it goes and having looked at beautiful crochet patterns and the lovely items my sister in law makes, has really given me the push to make the time to learn to crochet properly.

I'm inspired by many people, my family and friends and by some fantastic blogs.

I look forward to sharing my crafting journey with you all, and hopefully pick up some tips and hints from you too.  Blog suggestions are always welcome.

Thanks for reading

Michelle
