One day, it was a couple of years ago now, my 4 year old daughter was not a well girl. She lay in bed and her forehead burned and she muttered nonsense and she would not let me leave her side, not for a minute... except for when I told her that I was going to get some old bits of fabric from the attic and make with them something that she could cuddle...

I made a cat, a yellow cat made from curtain material, she loved it. And she named it Daisy Lily, and it was the first little animal that I had ever made.

Now I make all sorts. Softies, jewellery, things in jars, the occasional fruit-flavoured lip balm. I have got the makey bug... thanks for visiting xx
