I've decided to venture into the world of blogging and have decided to use my love and passion for crafting as my starting point!
Posts might be a bit slow to start with while I get to grips with how this works but I hope you will stay so I can share the projects I'm working on and new ones I start.
How I got into craft
My main crafting passions are cross-stitch, sewing and most recently crochet! I started crafting when I was very young with my Nan who would let me help her make cards. As I grew older I had the chance to take Textiles (needle work as it was once known) at school and fell in love with using material to make things. I made a pillow case as well as a quilt and this was the start of many years of wanting to make gifts for people.
The love for cross-stitch however came from my mum. For as long as I can remember she's been doing cross-stitch projects and giving them away as gifts. For many it is tedious and repetitive but I find it soooo relaxing to do.
Now onto crochet. It's a bit random how I started to learn this craft. My thought process one day was that I can't knit, even though my Nan had tried many a time, but my Nan could knit but not crochet. So hang on does this mean I can crochet? Well turns out I can and I'm actually ok at this.
So what's next?
So two weeks later after my crochet epiphany and here we are! I really hope you like the projects I'm doing and I can't wait to share the excitement that comes with doing craft!
