About Me

I am a young (ish) married women from Scotland. I have several pets (fish, worms, and two cats).

I love many crafts and am trying to teach myself dressmaking.

I am gradualy becoming more eco friendly and trying to make my impact on the world a good one.

I am a vegan in my eating choices but I don't live as a vegan for clothes and accessories.

I read a lot (due to having a lot of waiting around in my job)

I love letter writing.

Please don't be offended if you get letters with spelling mistakes in them from me, I have dyslexia and although I do try to make my spelling as good as I can it will often still have errors in it.

Favorite Music

Fleetwood Mac, The Beautiful South, Marillion, Amy Grant, Eva Cassidy, Sting, Evenescence, Faith Hill, The Wishing Tree, Goo Goo Dolls, Dido, Travis, Lene Marlin, Savage Garden, Meatloaf, Michelle Branch, The Corrs, Wolfstone.

Favorite Books

Thursday Next series, Discworld, To Serve them all of my days, The Other Hand, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, The Child of the Mist, Jane Eyre, Little Women series, Sherlock Holmes, Farseer Trilogy

Favorite Crafts

Dress Making, Sewing, Card Making, have tried many and will try many more.

I love letter writing and hope that this will give me some life long friends to share letters with.

I can not knit or crochet to save my self no matter how many times I have tried.
