I've been crafting since I was in elementary school. My grandmother did beautiful work in crochet and was my inspiration. My mother crochets, knits, and is awesome with a sewing machine. I enjoy crochet and my attempts at beginner knitting. I also like papercraft, machine embroidery, smocking, and the occasional jewelery making. I really need to limit myself! So many crafts, so little time!

craft interests: crochet, gifts, holidays, jewelry making, knitting, paper crafts, sewing

The Ultimate Sewing Room contest entry

Re: Book Giveaway: Hand Dyeing Yarn and Fleece

I'm really getting interested in working with fiber (spinning, weaving, felting). This book would be a great addition to my library.

Re: What are your sewing resolutions?

I hereby resolve to finish at least half of what I start. As pertaining to sewing/crafting projects, anyway. Or maybe even sentences....

Re: How to Recycle Yarn from a Thrift-Store Sweater

I can't wait to get to the Salvation Army and start shopping! This sounds like fun and much cheaper than buying new. I really like the idea of recycling too.

Re: Melissa's Dream Room

My sewing room is the size of a small walk-in closet. It is crowded with all of my crafting supplies so it is practically impossible to get in to do any actual work. It would truly be a dream come true to have anything similar to my "dream" sewing room.
