Lil' Fatty.....my craft muse.

So, I've decided to start blogging as a way to further connect and explore my love affair with the indie-craft movement. I adore making things. Any kinds of things. Sewn things, painted things, irreverent things, any things.



I thought I'd start by talking a bit about my muse. Lil' Fatty.



Lil' Fatty is the cutest, cuddliest, grayest, softest, squishiest hamster in the world. We adopted him as our work hamster so he could be a mascot of sorts at my job. You should see the way he hordes a baby carrot. It'll bring a tear to your eye. Anyway, I picked him cause he was a little chunky, some might say fat, and now I've taken to calling him Fattycakes, which is also the title of this blog and my etsy shop http://fattycakes.etsy.com I'm pretty certain that I love him the most, since the thought of his little rotund gray body makes my heart want to melt right out of my chest. So here he is so that you can imagine squeezing his cute little face too.
