Too Many Projects, Not Enough Time
I’ve been thinking what to write as a small introduction of this latest (and probably last) blog post of 2017, but I’ve no wise words to share about this time of the year. So let’s get straight to the point and here you go a retrospective of my crafting for 2017. The first project of…
I went ice skating on Friday and this happened… And I got to spend the weekend on the couch, reading and writing? Sounds awful, right?!?

So, time to catch up on some scribbling about my latest crafty undertakings. Let’s start with the first one I’ve completed already a month ago. I’m part of a roller derby team, Boomtown Rollers Dublin (check us out here) and we have a bunch of eager rookies who are getting into all the jamming and…
