Hi, I’m Kerry, I’m 27, and I have fingers in many pies- I have made and sold chocolates and jewellery for many years, but now I’m expanding into other areas and currently just love patchwork. I like how all the little pieces come back together to make something great! I enjoy making pictorial quilts especially. By day I design wellington boots and gloves, run mail order, update the website and do general computer arty stuff for a gardening company.
PennyDog is named after my first greyhound Penny, aka The Penz, who we rescued 5 years ago, and sadly we had to have her put to sleep in October 2010. We also took on a fluffier blue brindle greyhound called Fletcher in May 2009, aka Boo or Cheebs. We live in Leicestershire with Alex, who is the man of our house. We love ice hockey and particularly follow Nottingham Panthers and Chicago Wolves.
