Hi there!

Welcome to the Empire of the Cat, where I like to share my arty adventures and kitten drama.

I am one of those people who has always been arty, though my parents might have used other words when I started drawing on the walls!  I love making things with my hands, and so I love a lot of arts and crafts (sewing, knitting, crochet, jewellery-making, cardmaking, painting, art journaling, mixed media +++), and I’m always up for learning about new ideas and new techniques.

I love doing online classes too and have done several on different platforms and in different subjects because they are just fun!

When I’m not getting my hands inky, I love spending time with my crafty kitties, reading, tinkering with websites, or exploring nature. Here in Scotland, we get a spot of weather from time to time, which makes things interesting, but when the weather is fair, let’s to go to the coast or the woods or to wander around some of the National Trust for Scotland properties and gardens.
