About Me

I am SAHM of 5. Quilting and Crochet are my Passion. I eat, breath, sleep and dream FABRICS! I love using my hands and the complete creation process.

I create something Daily whether it be fiber related or altering something from it's present state creating something totally new and outside the box or just roughing it up a bit.

I also have taken the pledge to rate. I do not flake so if you have not recieved from me please email me and let me know as I will always resend a swap. I also will angel for someone who has been flaked on. Snow flakes are the only flakes I like :)

Favorite Crafts

Quilting is my first and foremost love and something I try to do daily. It is like my zen. I venture off into other crafts but always go right back to my sewing machine and fabrics. I also like to make ATC's, most paper crafts though scapbooking isn't my forte, tried it and didn't like it so much. Sewing clothing for my daughter, Embroidery, Jewelry making, beading, crochet (taught by my grandmother when I was 4) so treasure the craft and think of my grandmother often when Im sitting down with my yarn and hooks. Baking, not so much into cooking but something about sweets and an oven can get my juices flowing :)

THINGS I LOVE AND CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH OF:

*Fat Quarters *2 1/2 inch fabric strips * 5 or 10 inch fabric squares *Fabric Selvages *Jewel Tones such as Saphire blue, Ruby red, Yellow topaz, Emerald green, Amethyst purple. * Fabric * 1930's reproduction, batiks * Sewing and quilting notions * Chocolate * Ceramic or Vintage Thimbles * Handmade Pin Cushions * Jeweled Stick Pins * Vintage Handkerchiefs * Vintage Doilies * Quilting Templates and Stencils * Ribbon * Rick Rack * Stretched canvas * Angels * Quilting books,dvd's, rulers, Anything by Eleanor Burns and Quilt in a day. * Handmade journals and dolls. * Fabric postcards. * Candles * Sachets * Lavender and mint and honeysuckle are my favorite scents.

Thanks so much for the FQ. How fun. It definitely reminds me of spring! Not sure what I will use it for, but it will definitely be used!!!

Hope to see you 'round! Happy Spring!

Your free-motion quilted mini-quilt is finished (had to wait for the paint to dry!) and going in the mail tomorrow. :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Cakers on Nov 12, 2010:

I absolutely loved the FQ you sent for the WTA game - the splash of the rose color throughout the pretty beige/tan pattern is really cool and I've not seen that before.

I'm not going to do much cutting on this one, I'm going to figure out a way to utilize as much of the FQ as possible. Thank you so much!
