Welcome to the new era of Craft Critique!
For those of you who don’t know me, I’ll introduce myself. I’m Nancy Nally, the owner of Nally Studios and the editor of the websites Scrapbook Update and Card Annex. As of today, I am also the new owner/editor of Craft Critique.
At one time or another, I’ve tried what seems like everything. I think my earliest memory of crafting is weaving potholders on a metal loom when I was a kid in the 1970′s. Some of them stuck (like the cross stitching that I did for years, and the sewing I do on occasion) and others (like my attempt at knitting a scarf that turned out looking like ocean waves) became enjoyable but comic failures. Although my primary passion is paper crafting these days, I still turn regularly to crafting for decor and gift projects. I truly believe that there is nothing more satisfying or personal than “I made it myself.”
I believe in the mission of Craft Critique as it was created by Sarah Moore, and I’m here today because I want to see the site continue to bring the craft community product reviews that are reliable, honest, and comprehensive. I hope that you all share that vision with me!
We have great plans for Craft Critique at Nally Studios in the coming weeks and months. We will be relaunching the Craft Critique website on a new platform with some new features we think you’ll love. We also will be issuing a call for reviewers for the site, so if you are interested in sharing your opinions with the craft world, please check that out!
Thanks for being a part of the Craft Critique community and for letting me be a part of it as well!
If you would like to contact me about Craft Critique, my email is nancy@craftcritique.com.
I’m so glad you have taken over the ownership of this site! I have missed it since it suddenly stopped being updated after their April Fools post.
Best wishes!

Congratulations! I missed Craft Critique and wondered where it went. I can’t wait! I will also point out that not having a blogger account, or AIM or the other, it is not as easy to leave a message as on some other blogs. I love to comment and play along too! So happy for you! Thank you! All the very best.
I am so glad That Craft Critique is back. I missed it so much and looked at your site for guidance on crafting products I wished to purchase. Good luck with your new/old enterprise.

My you are one busy lady! I honestly am over-blogged, but when I was reading this regularly I loved the advice. Just checked out the card annex and hope it’s designed like that–the PERFECT interface for we busy crafters. We can glance through a page of blogs and catch up on our craft of choice. Wish everyone would set their blogs up like that! Good luck on your newest projects Nancy!
Cool Beans! I have missed this site. Thanks for taking over Nancy. Miss you on Paperclipping!
