I miss show and tell days from elementary school, so every Saturday I'll be sharing pics or stories of my latest crafty project. Being creative makes me feel fabulous so I try to indulge whenever I have the chance.
I used to work in a craft store in my early twenties. Every two weeks I probably gave more than half of my paycheck back to my employers. You name it I dabbled in it. Stamping - yup, sewing - you bet, silk and dried flower arranging - oh yeah. Cross stitch, jewellery making, ceramic painting - the list goes on and on. When I moved on to another job I declared myself a craftaholic and admitted that I had a problem. You know the drill, "Hello, my name is Katrein and I am a recovering craftaholic."
I have purged my crafting stash many times and now I TRY to limit myself to knitting, baby sewing projects, and home decor. Thanks to the lovely ladies in my local knitting group, I have just recently purged all of my cross stitch stash. Having a baby gave me the motivation to focus. Actually, my free time is so limited that all I have time for is knitting, wogging, and reading. So goodbye to everything else. Next Saturday I will be able to post what I am currently knitting. Unfortunately all of my current projects are Christmas gifts so I am stealth knitting whenever I have the chance.
Speaking of which, I had better get back to it. Have a great weekend!
