About Me

*Sigh*. Can you sum up the complex unique personality that is me on an about page?

Yes, I think you probably can ;-). Hi! I'm Susie, I'm 37, I live in Cambridge UK with my partner in a small terraced house covered in woodchip with a very long garden. The garden and I are engaged in a bit of a battle but I think I've got the upper hand at the moment...

I love: sewing, knitting, patchwork, music, clothes, fashion, crochet, cooking, and making everything I possibly can myself. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, usually I have fun doing it. I'm a hedgewitch (you knew this was coming) and, for me, taking pride in creation and avoiding mass-produced as much as possible is a way of connecting with earth and stuff like that. Besides, it's much more fun. You get better Stuff! I recommend it! (Still working on that anti-materialism thing).

When I'm not doing battle with the bindweed, attempting to knit mad things, or considering the most attractive way to sew a ruffle, I'm learning to read tarot. And often I look at my guitar and think, if I got myself together a bit I could learn that... Then I remember the F chord.

I started this blog to share all my projects and progress. Hope you enjoy!
