I am K.A.N.
Karyn A. Nash
I am the wife to a wonderful husband and mother to a crazy baby boy. We have now been married for 4 years! It seems insane that it has been that long, but it has been the best time of my life. My husband and I graduated college in May 2013. He graduated with a bachelor of science degree in computer science and I graduated in mechanical engineering. I am currently at home taking care of Baby O and my husband is doing graduate school, headed for a master's in game engineering.
The first time I learned to sew was from my mom. She taught me how to make a pillowcase. At the end of that, she exclaimed that she was never driving with me. Needless to say, I have improved on my sewing skills and I consider myself a fine driver.
While my husband was doing an internship in the summer of 2011, I had some free time and decided I wanted to make a jean quilt. While I was searching for some direction, I came across a few crafting blogs. I have always enjoyed making things, but that summer was when I discovered my love for crafting. My fabric stash and craft supply have increased tremendously since...all the while my free time has been ever decreasing. I have made things to be proud of and things that look much nicer in the trash. I believe that crafting (and life) is all about learning from mistakes, and I am continually learning every day.
Hello. I am a new Nana and very excited as my little Grandson is coming from the Cayman Islands to visit me in South Africa in June. I have been looking at making him a quiet book and came across your Noah's Ark, which looks wonderful. I see the other posts are all dated 2016 so I'm hoping that you are still on this page, and would be able to let me have a copy of Noah's animals patterns. Looking forward to hearing drom you.

ReplyDeleteKaryn, I'm here for the same reason and found you in the same way as Teresa! I'd also love a copy of the animal patterns if they're still around after all these years. :)
ReplyDeleteTeresa, so sweet of you to make your grandson a quiet book. I'm sure he will love it, and what a special handmade treasure for him to hang onto!
