Hi Andrea, Welcome! I just joined last week and flicking through past posts, I saw you are in New Brunswick - me too! I'm in St. Andrews, right down at the bottom on the shores of the Bay of Fundy. I'm also new to crochet and managed to make a pair of baby shoes, which I posted with a picture on 9th October, under the heading Baby Shoes and Bootees. I'd also picked up the knitting needles after 20 odd years, so had a very busy week! We're expecting our first grandchild, a little girl, in January. I hope to make more things before she's born and try to scrapbook, which I only started earlier this year. Now I have no money! Addicted! X
