Hello, my name is Bridget! I am 43, married, and a stay-at-home mum of one young son. We live in a cottage in a little corner of the Lake District (UK). I am just a bit obsessed with all things sewing, knitting and generally creative. I spend an awful lot of time thinking about projects and usually have at least 2 or 3 things on the go at once, to stop me getting bored. This year, I would like to make my own clothes ... in amongst the other stuff!
