I love spending a bit of time each evening having a quick look at my favorite crafty blogs. Often in the evening I am too tired to craft myself (except for a little embroidery while watching TV) but I love the color, creativity and happiness of crafting each day. So, I have a peek to see what others have been up to! Since I find inspiration in viewing your blogs, I thought maybe hosting my own site may motivate me to craft more regularly on the weekend. We'll give this a try anyway :)
I have always been attracted to color and crafting, but I would not classify myself as creative or artistic. I know my saying that will bother some of you. What I mean to say is I am happiest coloring in the picture that someone else drew; I would rather follow a published quilting pattern instead of crating my own; I like to trace an embroidery pattern and then try as best I can to follow the guide.
That being said, I still love to craft. I like bold colors and geometric or nature-inspired patterns. I am primarily a process person, but am certainly happiest when I have a good product at the end of an afternoon.
Hopefully with time I will have a few good stories to share and pretty pictures to post. Please let's make this an interactive blog - I am curious to hear your thoughts and suggestions on what is posted here, so please do leave comments. It would be really nice to be part of a community of crafters via this blog, so I will try to post photos and updates often here and I will be peeking at your blogs each evening!
Do you have a blog too? What made you start writing? Please leave your link so I can peek at your page too!
Thank you for that entry. It showed me that even if you start late in your life doing anything crafty you still can achieve something, you still can learn.
