Grow Your Blog 2014


I’m partying this weekend... at the Grow Your Blog party, hosted by the generous and lovely Vicki from 2 Bags Full. Welcome to all the new visitors!

This post is designed to introduce me to everyone joining in the party, so without further ado...I’m Chrissie, lover of crochet, embroidery, sewing and baking. I’m happiest when I’m creating something that offers comfort and love to family and friends, whether it’s a crochet scarf or a batch of cookies.



I live between the North and South Downs in southern England, with my Darling Husband and two daughters, Bunny, age 10, and Little Flower, age 4.



I tend to overlap projects – as I’m working on one...

A sewing machine cover in the making
an interesting new project will catch my eye, and I’ll just see if I can get that one started, too! So many works in progress...

Hence my slogan: Life is one big WIP!

Friends make life more fun, offering support and inspiration, so I set up two craft-a-long projects to join blog friends together. The first is the Bloomin’Crochet-a-Long,


which I created with my bloggy friend Marianne to keep me going with a large Hexagon Flower Blanket.

I also host Stitching Sundays


where we share projects, tutorials, tips and ideas involving needle and thread.

Thank you for visiting – feel free to browse the archive button on the side or click an interesting label in the “Looking for Something?” section!

A big hug and thank you to Vicki for organising the party – now I'm off to visit some new blogs!


Happy weekend!
