Introduction Hi, thanks for looking at my blog. I'm Chris,a retired Special Needs teacher and enjoy playing with paper, fabric, stamps, ink and anything else that I can lay my hands on! I live with my lovely (long-suffering) husband who puts up with my mess.I am Mum to 3 sons and Gran to two grandsons and a grandaughter. I love to escape to the countryside (when I can) to relax, but also love to visit galleries and old houses. Oh and yes - I am pearshaped!
