My Crafting Journey

Western Australia

Hi, I'm a Mum of 3. 1 22year old girl now living in Cains and 2 boy's 12 and 5. We live with my man on 6 acres on a semi rural property 30 minutes south of Perth in Western Australia. We have 2 cats, 1 dog and at the moment 11 ducks, 12 hens and a few too many roosters. I love to make things, at the moment crocheting is my chosen craft that keeps me sane in a busy world.

Interests: Crocheting, cloth doll making, home decorating, gardening, family and friends

It is a weird time when a child leaves home. I have found we have a better relationship when she is away and at times talk more. She misses the boys and they miss her Lots when she is away, big boy would not even talk to her on the phone when she left at the start of this year Luc is coming home soon for a friends wedding so it will be great to catch up, she just keeps using all our fly buys points, coming home though Hugs Audra
