I've been crafting since I was a child. I remember secretly getting my mum's sewing machine out after school to make a skirt, even though I'd been specifically told not to use it without anyone around. Nobody knew, until now. I loved making clothes, from my wedding dress to maternity clothes and then my children's clothes.

​

In more recent years I have been book folding and launched the 'Love Book Folding' website where I still sell book folding patterns and share 'How To' videos about book folding.

​

Currently, I create samples for Pink Ink Designs and Creative Expressions (hence my work is mostly with their products). I love their products and I feel very lucky. If you watch Create and Craft you might catch me demonstrating Creative Expressions products too. You'll also find me in the pages of Crafts Beautiful until the June 2021 edition where I'll be writing about different mixed media techniques.

​

I love anything crafty and get stuck in whenever I can. I hope you join me on my adventures in the crafting world and enjoy the ride.
