Closet crafters

I've discovered a new social group - closet crafters!  These shy private beings hide away at home enjoying crafting and making wonderful things.  They have wonderful skills which are unknown to most of their friends, and often long to share their love with other people and learn more crafting skills.  But the great thing I've discovered is that there are lots of closet crafters around!  Lots of people who love to sew, paint, knit but are embarrassed to tell their friends what they like to do with their evenings.  That's why I started A Crafty Night In, and it has been wonderful to meet a few times a month with others who feel the same and aren't embarrassed to share ideas and rave on about the newest fabric shop to open.  It's also great to be able to share our latest projects with each other, from the simplest item to the most complex, they are all achievements for the people who have done them and it's great to find friends who appreciate what it took to make that seamingly-simple bag.


I am sure there are lots of other closet crafters out there, so don't be scared, tell us about what you enjoy making, and perhaps come and join us at A Crafty Night In one day?
