A little introduction...

For a little while now I've been silently lurking around the craft blog community, obsessively looking for hours at a time, at the beautiful things these crafters create. I am always left feeling so inspired and awe struck, and wishing that I could make things as lovely as these. I've been too shy to comment on the blogs, and I have decided that something needs to change!
It's time I stopped wishing, and started doing...so I am hoping that by starting this blog I will become more confident in commenting to others and that it will inspire me to start being more creative myself.
I've only recently become a mother for the first time, so I don't have a whole lot of time to do crafting. But I'm managing to snatch a few minutes here and there during the day and I'm regularly finding myself going to bed at 1am, as I get so engrossed reading blogs or starting new projects and late into the evening seems to be the only time I get to myself.
This little lady is the latest thing I've made in these early hours, from the "More Softies" book,a Moopy Bunny, with a bird on her headand then I thought she may need a friend,so I made him, he may be a pirate, but he's very friendly.

  1. Hi there! I just saw your posts on Flickr and then followed your profile over here. Coincidentally I am just like you! I too just started my own blog based on the trials of being creative. I wish you the best and will continue to watch your blog and Flickr for more of your beautiful creations.
