Hi to everyone 
Thanks Carola for reminding me of this forum url address - it's nice to see all the familiar names, and the forum has a nice mixed crafts feel to it - I'll enjoy exploring!
I will now have to fight for more time on pc and t'internet, thinking I may need to set up an internet rota for the household! There's always a queue!
When I'm not fighting to get onto the pc, I love knitting - rediscovered it a year ago after giving up learning to knit early 80's and spent most of last year making baby garments for our first grandchild. Also brushed up on my crochet last year, but haven't done much since making a baby blanket last year.
Hobbies that I've enjoyed but haven't had time to do for years is card making and paper craft, painting, drawing and sewing and dress making - but hope to put this right before too long.
I would love to do/ learn: quilting/patchwork. textile and yarn dying, spinning, and new knitting techniques - I'm always on the lookout for local workshops.
Look forward to chatting with you all, and no doubt being led astray to interesting crafty things  (don't need much encouragement tho'! )
Purplegem
