Finally, my first post!!



Okay, I am finally doing it, starting my blog. It has been registered for some time now and I have been reading everybody elses craft blogs for probably a couple of years now and I have just been procrastinating starting my own blog. Dont know why but it has seemed a nerve racking experience to do so, out of all the things in life to be nervous about. But here I am, nervous no longer. I went to see Amy Butler last Thursday night and after sewing/quilting for over 7 years now, I was re inspired after seeing Amy. She was fantastic and here is a pic of us on the night and here I am starting my blog.

My name is Renee, I am married to my lurvely hubby, Matt and we have 3 girls, twins Sacha and Teagan and little Gemma who is 2 1/2. We have recently left our hometown of Melbourne to settle in the north eastern town of Wangaratta. So in between all the things that keep us busy, I love to sew, I have quilted many quilts over the years now, for ourselves and for gifts. And more and more have been making clothes and other bits and pieces, cushions, buntings and the list goes on.

So now I have taken the first step into the blog world, over the next few weeks, I will update you on many of my past projects now completed and my current ones. And learn how to set up my blog, so it wont look very exciting just yet but I am on my way..
See you soon..
