I registered my support for the initiative from the Crafts Council, I Want to Make Craft Count. I wrote the following in the space provided for what craft means to me.
Craft has shaped my life from the moment I learnt how to make a pair of scissors perform at my command. It has kept the wolf from the door and carried me through my seasons of depression. It both inspires me and gives me the means to express my innermost thoughts and emotions. Craft has no boundaries, is welcoming and accessible to all.
