About me

 Hello there! Although I have a short "about me" section at the side of the blog, I thought it would be fun to expand on it a little.

I'm a Catholic young woman who enjoys doing crafty things. Knitting, sewing, and crochet are my favourites, but I'll give almost anything a go. I love making my own clothes, and I dream of having a wardrobe full of homemade pieces.

I want to sew a dress like this. 

I enjoy reading. Jane Austen is my favourite author, but I like Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Georgette Heyer, G.K. Chesterton, Agatha Christie, Rumer Godden, J.R.R. Tolkien... almost anything that's intelligently and well written.

I enjoy writing. I would like to publish stories and novels some day, but even if I never did, I would still want to write. I've always written short stories and attempted to write novels; the longest I've ever got is 44, 500 words. I want to write a very long book someday, just for the fun of it. 

I enjoy music. I play the piano, and I have a long list of pieces I aspire to play. I want to learn the organ some day. I sing soprano in a choir, and I love it.

I started blogging to write about my hobbies, but I also like blogging about films and my opinions on them, life, and anything that takes my fancy!
