Michelle Baker
'Crafty Betty'

That's me Michelle Baker - also known as Crafty Betty.
I am the Grandaughter of Betty Brown (1929-1992) who gave me the inspiration for my business name. I am super proud of my 2:1 Degree in Education which I worked incredibly hard for and I am an enthusiastic Textile Artist/Teacher. I do most of the sewing teaching at the studios and I take pride in the reputation that I have built up over the last 6 years.
But without you lovely people I wouldn't be here!

Val Allen
'Grannie Val'

Val is Michelle's Mum and can often be found at the studios busy sewing away and serving teas and coffees. Val is an excellent cook and makes delicious cakes that the Crochet Knit & Natter LOVE! In fact the neighbouring shops have started placing their orders!
