| This is me, Natalie, in the super, awesome, craftastic apron one of my BFFs JJVG made for me...Jen is awesome, not only can she sew amazing aprons such as this, she has a musical laugh, and her thighs don't touch. |
I have done one form of crafting or another since I was a youngster. I am in the midst of stopping a bad habit, and have heard that the best way to change a bad habit, is to replace it with a healthy, new, good one. So, I have decided that this blog will be one of the healthy new ones to help me conquer my bad one. So, with that said, here is a little about me:
A- age 36
B- boyfriend I have a great BF named Will.

N-nocturnal crafting I have done way too many all nighters- once I
