About Me

Last updated January 9, 2013

I signed up to Swap-bot a very long time ago. I took a break for about a year and a half and found I really did miss trading crafts, journals and other items with friends all over the world. Its great to come back and see so many familiar faces that are still active here.

My Likes

  • My favourite colour is brown, followed by any Autumn tone. (I love the fall, it is my favourite season.)
    • I have 2 Children, both boys ages 9 and nearly 5 years old. I will likely join a swap for them at some point so I will have their likes listed below mine.
    • I collect fabric. I LOVE vintage fabric!
    • I love wooden crochet hoops & some of the projects created on them.
    • Sewing Patterns would be awesome, but please check with me before you send as I may have the pattern already
    • I only sew with Gütermann thread
    • Refinishing furniture - Love what you can do with some sand paper and a coat of paint.
    • Reading craft magazines

Hobbies

I love to sew!

I try and reuse or rescue fabrics for my sewing projects whenever possible. (There is a lot of material looking to be reused and not thrown into a landfill!)

I also enjoy package swaps, sending surprises to another swapper is awesome! I love personalizing every package :)

I make jewellery, create ATC's, love smash - style journals, I would love a pen-pal as writing to my old pals seemed somewhat therapeutic.

I am a Jack of all Trade & Master of One :)

I am fairly open to discussing anything, so feel free to send me a message should you have any questions!

The Boys

The Boys Interests

COLE, age 9

  • Hockey. Anything Hockey, especially Canucks.
  • Did I say Hockey?

Really tough to make a list for Cole as his life is Hockey. (He's so upset that there is not hockey this year!)

LUKAS, age 5

  • Dinosaurs
  • Lego
  • Mazes and easy pen/paper games
  • Drawing
  • Age of Empires/Rise of Nations (Yes he can play, lol. he plays better than a lot of adults I know.)

Comment: I wish I could give you more than one heart, especially for the beautiful heart you sent me! I just finished reading it (though I haven't had a chance to do the word search yet) and as I read it, I thought, "Yeah, this is someone I could be friends with! When is that teleporter gonna be ready?" :) Thanks so much for sharing with me. I LOVED getting it!
Response: Yay! I am so very glad that you got it & are enjoying it :) Keep in touch!
