About

'I express myself through all the things I do whether it be photography, food, art, writing or even the way I dress. It's the way I find my joy.' Sarah Kramer

Hi. My name is Emma and I'm 19. I want to be a dog groomer but at the moment I'm just floating about so I'm a full time crafter for the time being. I used to be an art student, I'm a vegetarian, I dye my hair red, I post too much on the boards and I am the grammar police. When ever I visit somewhere new, or a place I don't go to very much, I like to get a special trinket to remind me of that place, something unique and unusual I couldn't find at my local shops. I don't like to take clothes back to the shop when they are slightly 'faulty' because otherwise someone else will just do the same and it will end up unloved and in a skip, when it could be easily fixed! And I love to alter things I buy to make them more me!


When it comes to craft I love embroidery, knitting, crochet and making stuff out of felt the most. I also like painting and drawing. I like to use mixed media when I can and I like to discover and try different crafts. I can never follow patterns exactly, I always have to inject my own creativity and ideas into things but that’s the whole point of handmade. Craft has become my way of life! I've started to get really into recycling materials as much as possible for my projects. I also love music and writing, if you have a zine/online mag get in touch if you need a writer (for free)!


Current WIPs:
* Bee Dolly - on hold
* Moomin Valley Teapot Plush - nearly there
* Waterlillies - I’ll get round to it!
* Throw - 3/4 complete
* Scarf and mittens - making slow progress
* bag - getting there

Thanks so much. I'm slowly getting better, I just need to work on making my seams straight. Thanks again, I'll post up the project I'm sewing once I finish.

Thanks for liking my blanket. It was my fist finished blanket. I'm getting into sewing now, so if you know anything about that let me know, cause I'm a little clueless.

Hey, I was just checking through the wishlist board and I spotted your one about the questionnaire's for users profiles. Rather than add a specific thing for it, you could add it in to your about box? Let me know if you want to do that and I can give you the text for it. xo

Yeah...that stinks about the chewed up legs on the kitchen table, my dog isn't that bad. We have managed to get it so she mostly just chews on her toys, once and awhile she will try to chew on a pillow and rip it up.

Ello! If you still need an American style frosting recipe I've found you one in a cookbook that I'll scan in for you. It's all English so you'll know how to deal with the measurements and what the ingredients actually are (like in American recipes- What on earth is Shortening?!) xx
