Piroska

I live in Melbourne and love making things. Every time I see a new craft I want to have a go! I do a lot of drawing and painting, and I also knit, crochet, sew, embroider, etc. At the moment I am also taking belly dancing classes and learning to play the flute. I have a Blythe called Ivy, and I love anything exotic: Indian, Turkish, etc.

The Cure, Siouxie and the Banshees, NIN, Opeth, Southern Culture on the Skids, Jolie Holland, Amy Winehouse, Guns 'n' Roses, ACDC, Regina Spektor, Turkish and Arabic belly dance music.

knitting, crochet, making clothes (for me and for my Blythe doll), Hungarian embroidery, bookbinding, card making.

the colours black, red and turquoise, small things, skulls and bats, spiderwebs, pre-Raphaelites, Catholic paraphernalia (esp. Virgin Mary themed), belly dancing, Blythe, orange flavoured chocolate, apple candy, gypsies, fabric with tiny cute prints, tiny buttons, Japanese fabric, hearts, coloured leather, rick rack, stationary sets, 1950s pin-up girls, decorated paper, stripey fabric.

I'm pretty easy, I don't particularly like the colours orange or brown in large doses. Don't much like banana or cherry flavoured/scented things.
