Merging hobbies or Agatha. Bristle gets everywhere

I am struggling to understand the difference between posts and pages on this blog, so am republishing an earlier page.

This blog is about making miniatures but over the last few months I have indulged myself by making scenes from Christie books that I have loved for years

I have also realised that it isn’t just the therapeutic benefit of making teeny tiny things that give me joy, it is all the mental planning that I do. I can spend ages lost in thought solving how to make something: occasionally discarding two or three ideas before getting it right.

I often do more than one thing at a time. Most nights I watch TV crocheting or knitting! It isn’t just a distraction activity, I get enormous satisfaction from accomplishing something every day. It doesn’t have to be a complete project but even solving a part of a process makes me feel ten feet tall.

It has been such fun to combine two hobbies and all for my enjoyment. The only problem is that I am running out of space to house my projects.

But what a great problem to have .
