All thoughts lead to..
Craft! Okay so I am a little single minded and craft consumes a huge part of my life. Recently Carolyn wrote a really lovely blog entry about me. I was really touched.
Reading through her blog I discovered Carolyn owns a business called Etched in Memories where she does the most amazing photo etchings on pendants.
What has that got to with craft you say, well I think being able to make such a thing is incredibly crafty, but I recently saw a beautiful memory quilt and thought, hmm, what if you combined the two. What if instead of a generic charm attached to a quilt you could have a personalised one etched for you. What amazing memories you could attach to a memory quilt, not just fabric images but beautiful pendants as well. Imagine a baby quilt with one of your child's foot prints etched on a pendant. Or like the quilt I linked to you could add a pendant that is etched with a wedding or baby photograph. I like the idea that it would be even more tactile that just fabric.

See, all roads do lead to craft.
