I am the craftiest daughter of a very crafty mother. She taught me a lot of crafty basics when I was young. In k-12, I used to get in trouble for drawing on my schoolwork. Later on I picked up a paintbrush and taught myself how to paint. For a brief period in college, I played with a computer based paper doll program (kisekae) and I got quite handy with a mouse. Today, I use my chronic doodling habit to develop cross stitch and embroidery patterns. I will be posting a new pattern every first and third Monday on Craftsy. My most recent pattern will usually be available for free at first, so make sure you check back regularly.
Crafts I like to do: I love to draw and paint (acrylics and watercolors). Recently I took up hand embroidery and quilting. I love paper piecing and am currently working on the Lord of the Rings Block of the Month quilt over at www.FandomInStitches.com.
