Helen
I am a crafter through and through, but hand embroidery is the one I always come back to. I was taught by my lovely granny, because the school said they couldn't teach me as I'm left handed.
I find hand embroidery really relaxing as you don't necessarily follow a pattern and can just play and be creative.
