Also, stuffing things is such a good way to use up scraps. I will have to make more projects that allow for that, I have at least two more chickens to make anyhow!
I'm away from home right now, but knew if I didn't start this blog now I never would. I will post in text and maybe even in doodle or comic form if I'm feeling fancy. I hope to embrace my inner clown this year and be more silly and whimsical! This is for me and my cats to read, but you can stick around if that's your jam.
It is very important to visit your local library. I try to go once a week and I always have a good time. I was able to almost completely break a shopping habit by going on library sprees back when I was in university. Did I read all of the books? No, but I had a lot of fun and didn't get stuck with things I didn't need doing it. The crafty books are among my favourites.

As you can see, I got started basically as soon as I got home. I'm so in love with the colours!
