This is me!

So here goes......going to give blogging a try! 

My name is Rhian and I’m a craftaholic!! 😂

I started crafting 5 years ago this November. My best friend had just had a little girl and I wanted to make her something special for her first Christmas. (I also needed a distraction from wedding planning and boredom which was leading to picking of food!) So I picked up a needle for the first time in adulthood and stitched her a stocking!

 Fast forward to 2017 i started a learn to crochet class and loved it! My amazing tutor Vicky was so patient and learnt all the basics.

 Then in 2018 my friend and I went to a craft fair at the NEC in Birmingham and i saw a demonstration by card-io cards and was amazed by how quick it was to make beautiful cards.

 So (a lot of money spent later) here I am. I made a special crafting Instagram page at the end of last year to share my makes and just love all the crafting there is out there. My three main crafts are cross stitch, crochet and card making but I'm always keen to try new crafts

    Ithon is the river that runs through past where i grew up and where I live now so what a better name could i have chosen!!

 Hopefully my blogging skills will improve.....
