Handicrafts that I do

I've been doing various handicrafts since I learned to knit and sew around the age of five (OK, so I used to draw a bit before then, but that hardly counts).

Here are some of the things I do, or have done if there was time:

Dollcraft
Drawing
Dressmaking
Knitting
Lacemaking
Painting
Sculpting
Tatting
Toymaking

I also occasionally make clothes or toys to order, sometimes from a few sketches or a brief description.

See my Toys page for links to my handmade creatures.

Links

OK, so there aren't that many craft related websites out there, but I can recommend a few:

Beadbrains - A U.S. site owned by someone who's been known to make jewellery for the rich & famous. Look out for the cute fish!
Beadmaster - Go to this site to order beads and jewellery-making items. The catalogue is excellent.
Clayzee - a resource page for polymer clays, and other craft products.
Croft Mill - Scoot reference page for a really good mail-order fabric supplier. Hilarious catalogue.
Cygenus Studios - collectable model kits and sculpting
Fenris - instructions on how to draw the mountain biking sheep, Mint Sauce
Glass Orchids - glass jewellery website, very pretty stuff
"Hobby" catalogue. Model-making and various other craft stuff.
Mavis Crafts - an online shop in Hertfordshire
Paper Airplanes, instructions on plane and even helicopter making from paper.
Silverpin Studio - bobbin lacemaking, but using wire instead of thread
The Silk Route - a mail-order silk fabric supplier
