I am a mum with two precious children whom I love dearly. My son is seven years old and my daughter is three. I have been with my partner for 13 years, we got engaged ten years ago, one day soon I'm sure we'll actually wed. We live at a beautiful little beach and we are very happy in our little house on the hill. We love to spend time together as a family. We have a couple of pets, 1 white kitten , 3 Chooks, 7 Guinea Pigs and a beautiful little cockatiel. I love to be creative and I have way too many projects on the go at any one time. I have always loved craft, it is hard to name my favourite as it is constantly changing. I would say at the moment it is probably quilting, I am only new to the quilting game but it is so addictive and i just have to keep adding to my fabric stash!!! Other crafts I love are Knitting, Crochet, Cross-stitch, Embroidery, Scrapbooking, Sewing, Beading. I really love to work with felt, it is so quick and easy.
