map-pin Sunderland, United Kingdom

I am 71 years old and retired. Will have a go at any art/craft, including fishing net, macrame, designing/dressmaking, knitting , crotchet, batik, painting, pottery, etc. Completed 'A' level in Art, Design and Textiles at the age of 45, whilst my children were babies. Love knitting/crocheting with cotton, particularly Rico for teddies and dolls.
