…. adventures in scruffybadgertime start here ….thank you for popping in!
My aims for this blog are: 
- To help me do more of this things I love
- To develop my creativity
- Let out my quirk!! (this once confident creature gets cooped up at work & likes to stretch its legs with a few laps around the block.)
- Oh, and I certainly don’t want to be filling new time with more work.
- Having a blog gives me somewhere to voice my ideas & saves boring anyone else who might have had to put up with my whitterings. I’m hoping I get better at it as feeling very much like a cautious newbie instead of wild hearted & crazy legged …
I love making things, sewing, jewellery, colour, photographs & lots & lots of other things. I am desperately trying to love running…but it’s hard! Sewing is my main passion, having been sewing since I was old enough to thread a needle – but I have had a sewing hiatus through working full time & I didn’t know how much I missed it until I picked it up again. I believe I have so much more to learn, extending my skill & experience. And newly being a new & very proud owner of an overlocker brings me a totally new realm of stitchery challenges.
I guess I can see how successful I am at doing the things I love by how much I fill this blog with plans & actual things I’ve done. The risk I see is that by writing this blog I have created something else to get in the way of actually doing what I love. And I’m also in danger of being inspired by all those other creative ladies out there & I’m spending more time reading blog after blog after blog (addictive stuff). Anyhow, I’m hoping not – my trouble is that I can become overwhelmed by all the things I’d love to do, that I could do, and end up not doing any of them…. this blog will be my journal/ sketchbook to organise my projects….reclaim idle hours of indecision….
And by the way, ScruffyBadger is my nom de plume, but I’m also known as Winnie & I live in Bath, UK.

I saw your rusty brass sequins and wondered where you could get them as they are just what I’m looking for complete with rust. Can you help?
I recently found your blog through “Did you make that” blog when everyone met for a shopping trip- which sounded fun! I’ve just started a blog this year and have certainly not gotten in the habit of writing regularly! I love the fabrics you pick for your project. I was especially interested in the top- Simplicity 2599. It turned out so well! I’m looking forward to reading all your posts! (Hopefully it will inspire me to upload my photos and write a bit more!) Cheers!
Thank you Karen! Nice to hear from you too. I’ll come visit you too! I do find bloggers so inspiring and get so much pleasure from sharing with other people who are interested in the same things. Good luck with your new blog. X
