Let's see, a little about me:

I am 30 years old considering a career change to a more rewarding career. I have two beautiful Siberian Huskies, Dakota and Cheyenne. I have not yet been blessed to have children of my own, so Dakota and Cheyenne are it. They are 9 and each have the most unbelievable personalities.

I enjoy making patchwork quilts, hand quilting, weaving baskets, scrapbooking, card making and photography. I absoulutely love flowers - I believe that I inherited this from my Great Grandmother Shifflett. Lilies and roses are my absolute favorite.

My favorite colors are earth tones / neutrals, dark purples, greens, burgundy, and brights. I am not much on pastel colors, as you would be able to tell by looking at the colors I have chosen for the quilts that I have made thus far.

I obtain the most enjoyment by brightening the days of others, bringing a smile to someone's face or by helping them in some way.

I have been weaving baskets since 2000 and have made over 200 to date. I make all shapes, sizes and colors. I am hoping to update myEtsy site soon to include all that I can offer.

~Patchwork Quilts is a passion of my heart. I have been fortunate to inherit this craft and art from my Great-Grandmother Shifflett. A surprise to most, I prefer to hand quilt rather than machine quilt.

I enjoy Sewing: Quilts, Wall Hangings, Baby Quilts, Curtains as well as other crafts.

~Scrapbooking - I enjoy putting my memories into an album for everyone & myself to cherish.

~Card Making

~I am new to ATC's. I admire the art of others with their ATC's and look forward to joining the wonderful world of ATC's.

~Ribbon - I absolutely love ribbon

I have been very fortunate to have gotten to see various parts of the world at an early age. I love receive postcards from other parts of the US or world with stamps and the postmark. Ever since I was a little girl, I have admired stamps.

I love to cook and decorate cakes, cupcakes and desserts. I don't what is is about cupcakes, but I love them, am addicted to them. I prefer to make cupcakes any day over a cake! I enjoy receiving recipes from others, so I can branch out and try something new. I have found that the recipes I receive usually turn out to be some of the best.

Hand made/crafted cards, postcards, ATC's and kits to make things with.

I absolutely love bears. I have collected Cherished Teddies since 1995. About 75% of my collection has been given to me & I can tell you where each member of the collection derived from. Boyd's bears are absolutely adorable.

Anything to do with flowers!

I do not like gothic things or the gothic style.

Pastels isn't one of my favorite group of colors.
