About Me

My Photo
Heather
Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
Hi! I'm Heather, a scientist who, while striving to become a geochemist, discovered a passion for sewing. While I've dabbled in many other hobbies in the past, I think I've finally found my niche. Lately I've fallen in love with knitting. This blog will chronicle my ups and downs in the attempt to have an entirely self-made wardrobe, and other sewing- and knitting-related tidbits and thinkies that come along. If you want to contact me, feel free to email me at sewingonpins (at) gmail (dot) com.
