Hi my name is Maria, I'm married to the most wonderful man in the world. Without his support during 2007 things would be very different for me right now.
It wasn't one of the best years I've had to say the least but hopefully it was the beginning of a new chapter in our life.
Chris and I have always had a love of crafts, he's into glass engraving and has this obsession with wood. He spends hours out in his beloved shed making things with scraps of wood....goodness knows where he finds it all. Luckily I love wood too so I eagerly wait to see what he's been making when he's been gone for hours, lovingly sawing, routing, nailing, sanding, staining and polishing. Even in the depths of winter....It's a man thing I think!
I love sewing, cross stitch and more recently card making, so, thankfully, I can stay in the house, much more civilised when it's -10°
We have also always wanted our own business so January 2008 saw the opening of Pandas Patch.....initially an on-line craft shop, hopefully leading to bigger and better things.
Through Pandas Patch we hope to showcase some of our crafts and those of anyone who would like to show or are looking for an outlet to sell, their crafts.
