About me

I'm Robyn. I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. I like to make stuff. Lots of stuff. Or, I used to. This blog started before I had a kid. And went back to school. And basically lost all free time.

I have a cute little boy with big eyes and a great husband. I am a kitty-cat fanatic, but both of my sweeties died in 2010 at age 17.

I'm part award-winning journalist and part sewer/knitter/needleworker. In addition to being a newspaper copy editor, I was fortunate to have a fantastic gig blogging and social networking for Warehouse Fabrics Inc. Now I'm back in school getting my teaching license.

I had my one-and-only kiddo at the age of 36, and that's about all I care about anymore. Like, for instance, I used to care about what I looked like. My hair is full of flyaways, I have an extra 10 pounds to lose and I frequently wear flats. I'm like, "Heels? But they are uncomfortable." What? Who is this alien inside me? She looks like me, but way uglier.

This is where I write about anything and everything. Could be things I sew or knit, could be that I love bacon or something funny I saw. I wish I had people who still read my blog, but when your posts are spaced 2.5 years apart, you tend to lose people.
