Introduction

Well, this is my first crafting blog.  I'm not sure where to start so I suppose an introduction is a good place.

My name is Kimberly (Kim for short).  I am a real Jersey Girl living in Alberta, Canada.  I'm smart, down to earth, creative, and organized.  Although I do the traditional "girly crafts", I cannot describe myself as a girly person.

I live with my Canadian common-law husband, Justin.  Here is a picture of us.

Justin and I have happily been together for a while.  Although we are not married yet, we are working towards that step.  Besides, we need to save up for that sort of thing but first, a house of our own.  Yes, you read that right, we are trying to save up for a house of our own.

Together, we live with our three cats (Velcro, Riley, and Taven) and our dog (Ashrah).  Velcro and Riley were born under the shed of the neighbor of Justin's mother.  His mother took in the kittens and then ended up adopting their mother.  Justin decided to keep Velcro (appropriately named) and Riley.  I came into the relationship with Taven who came from a rescue situation and Ashrah who came from Prairie Animal Rescue Society.

I enjoy sewing the most but I also knit and crochet.  My creativity doesn't just doesn't end there.  I refuse to stay with just one medium.  I also love to experiment with different mediums such as clay and embroidery thread.  Currently, I am learning how to cross stitch, embroider, and quilt.

Although I am not a professed "green person," I am not afraid to work with the idea of being green.  I enjoy a challenge and I have already jumped on a few green/recycled projects.  I plan on throwing a variety of different projects up here.  You should be able to find everything from things for dogs, cats, and humans.  I do not intend to focus on any one section.

I look forward to sharing my projects with everyone.  Enjoy!
