1. Tell us three things about yourself we might not know.
I am currently doing the discovery award, I'm a Clydesider which is a volunteer for the Common Wealth Games, I was with the air cadets for 5 years even though I hate flying. I have been up in two seater planes thanks to that.
2. Who taught you your first craft?
I learned to knit at school. We had to knit a teddy bear. Everything else has been self taught as my mum didn't do any of these things.
3. What finish are you most proud of?
The t-shirt quilt. I had figured out how to do it before seeing these things on the Internet. Once I was finished I swore I was never doing another quilt that big.
4. What has been your biggest crafting disaster?
Someone bought me a spitfire cross stitch. I got lost doing it and it's still lying there unfinished.
5. What other crafts do you do?
Quilting, sewing and cross stitch.
