Welcome to Mary Ellen’s Making It Up.
This blog will be a conglomeration of three streams of thought. I tend to take original ideas and tweak them to my own. As I come across quotes I like or just random thoughts I will share my spin on them.
I love to knit and crochet. I look at different patterns and then combine them to make something basically the same, but ultimately completely different. Recently someone asked me about making a christening dress and I dug through my patterns and ultimately I am in the process of combining three different patterns to make the one dress.
I have also been dealing (or not) with hypothyroidism and recently found out that I am allergic to gluten necessitating a gluten-free diet. This means totally changing how I cook and how I eat. This also means that all my standard recipes have to be reworked or discarded. I will be sharing my triumphs and disasters along the way.
