… and, really, it’s about time.

Welcome to Penny’s Purls, my own little blog on my own little corner of WordPress. My name is Joanna (not Penny), and I work as an editor. I’m also a crafter, meaning I spend the majority of my free time up to my neck in yarn, fabric, paint, canvas, random garage sale finds that some day I’ll renovate … Sometimes I look at my studio and fear I’m becoming a hoarder, but that’s a topic for another post.

Starting a blog to chronicle some of those crafty experiences just seemed like a natural progression. Especially after reading the wonderful blogs of so many artists out there. And especially especially as I start trying to develop a craft business over at Etsy.

So, here goes. I hope to post at least once a week. (I have to write that down or I know I’ll never commit to it.) I think I’m (we’re?) going to have a lot of fun.
