About Me

Hi, I'm Kirsten Miller and I'm a polymer clay artist specialising in small animal sculptures. I started Quernus Crafts in 2009 after leaving behind a 15 year career in law (you can read more about my journey here).  Since then, literally thousands of wee creatures have appeared! Originally from Scotland, I now live in Greater Manchester with my husband, and I make the wee creatures in a lovely little studio in Milnrow. 

One of the best things about what I do is that the wee creatures make people happy. They have a spark of life about them that I can't explain, but it makes each one unique and very special, with their own personality. I have a group called Quernoholics Anonymouse on Facebook for all people who have been following and collecting the wee creatures over the years - it's a great place to hang out! I've recently started doing live videos in the group, including demonstrations of making the wee creatures.

I believe in giving something back - you can find out about the charity work I do here. And there's lots more information on my FAQs page about how I work generally.
