What moves me, motivates me and keeps my sanity!





I've spent a good part of my life working with my hands. I crochet, tat, knit, quill (with paper), quilt, worked with polymer clay, embroidery, and needlepoint. Some of these I am better with than others.


This blog reflects what interests me. My current interests may change, but what never changes is the need to work with my hands and create something beautiful.

A start!

Here's to a new endeavour - creating a blog!

I'm still tweaking a bit - please pardon the dust!

New visitors - as you may tell from my front page - I'm dedicated to making things with my hands.  I'm a child of the '60's - I remember macrame', crochet ponchos, toilet paper poodles and other crafty things!   I lament the loss of the major crafting magazines like McCall's Needlework & Crafts, and the inclusion of craft projects in the major women's magazines like Women's Day, Family Circle. Good Housekeeping and a slew of others.   Remember Lee Wards?

What are your crafting reminiscences?  What do you miss?
