Hello, my name is Sylvia (which I hate) but am usually called Sylvie or Sylv (which I hate even more). I am 63 and am married to Alan (7 years younger!!and 2nd time for me). We live in Peterborough but I would love to move somewhere more "countryfied". We have 4 children and 5 grandchildren, all geniuses of course. I started crafting when I was about 6 making woolly dolls and cardboard furniture for them. I progressed to knitting, machine knitting, cross stitch and now papercrafting. Actually I will try my hand at just about any craft but not always very well. My other obsession is gardening. I am retired and loving it.
