Profile Information:

Your company's name: .
City and Province/Parish/State: Toronto
Country: Canada
Specific crafting I do (NOT what people do in my company) -- a LIST of what I make, decorate, or artistically alter with my hands, and/or other part of my body.: Journals, Christmas ornaments, light switch plates, jewelry
About Me:: I'm chiefly an artistic bookmaker. I also paint Christmas/Kwanzaa ornaments and make jewellery. Rughooking I did only once but it is on my list of crafts to engage in regularly. I'm a beginner knitter. At most I can make rags and scarves. I have a portable quilting frame but haven't quilted anything yet. I am dying to do pottery again (1st and last time was over 20 years ago) but I probably won't start that until I've retired. I badly want to paint bisque and do bead embroidery ... I'd love to make paper from scratch but I don't think I'd have the patience ... the list goes on. I almost never logout, so my profile will almost always "show" that I'm online. :p

I'm excited about the books I'll be creating after June 7. Some will have embroidered or otherwise embellished spines. I've also finished making several stamps, which I'll be using as well, and I'm gathering leaves for pressing to use on some of the bookcovers. I hope that works out, as I love collage!

I share your frustration with time-consuming work. I finished up some books, thinking "Ooo, I got a lot done!" Then I really took a look ... Just 4 books! Ack!

A couple weeks ago, I chopped off all my hair. I'm nearly bald now. I'm more used to the feeling, but I wish I hadn't thrown it away. Well, I think I did. A bag-full of hair I could've used in my crafting.
