She tells me ...
I have been crafting for years with my Nana when I was younger. It all went up a gear when my partner bought me a crochet book - and the rest is history, I guess. I have just decided to learn how to sew and I am excited to get started.
When I craft I never have a set goal - I see where it takes me. Normally I draw ideas first - when I am meant to be doing other things! Then I go on from there - I do a great deal of stuff relating to what my family likes.
Why do I create? I find it is really an over-spill for an overactive mind. I have trouble switching off and I find creating helps me with that, of an evening. Plus I do enjoy the look on people's faces when I present them with a lovely bespoke item that I made just for them!

Fabulous to read a bit more about you, Breeshea, and to learn what drives you to create! Your shop is lovely, BTW!
