About Me
I'm a 50-mumble woman living on my own for the first time since my early 20s. Quite an experience. I have a balance disability and cannot work, so spend a lot of time knitting, reading, on my computer or doing various other crafts. I have a kitten named Clementine who is the love of my life, oh, and my name is Andrea, called Ande by my friends, which I consider you, now that you're reading my profile ;)
Favorite Crafts
Knitting, pottery, embroidery/crewel, quilting, sewing, writing, crochet (when I have to)
Favorite Music
60s-80s mostly. Rock and singer/songwriters
Wishlist/Likes
Buttons, yarn, trims/embellishments, embroidery patterns/floss, yarn, fabric, yarn (you get the idea)
Stuff for papercrafts - don't do much of them, but might if I had stuff. I have some rubber stamps, but don't know what to do with them....
Zines. Would love some zines.
Colors: Earthtones and blue.
Dislikes
Risque/sexually themed items, "country" decor, Precious Moments or any other themed tchotchkes. Witches, vampires, ghouls and ghosts. Scented stickers/notepaper/letters.
Colors: Red, pink, white and any 'neon' color
Favorite Books
Cozy mysteries, Sherri Tepper, Joseph C. Lincoln books
Favorite Television
All time - Hill St. Blues, Star Trek Next Generation, Barney Miller
Current - CSI, Bones, Criminal Minds
Other pertinent info
My household is neither pet- or smoke-free and since swap organizers have no control over who is assigned to who in swaps, I apologize if my swap smells a bit smoky or has a stray hair from my beloved kitten. I will wash any washable items prior to sending, and any purchased items will be immediately put into a ziplock to minimize exposure to smoke or pet hair.
I collect...
Antiques, buttons (including antique buttons), paperweights, stamps, watercolor paintings (love, love watercolors)
Edibles/drinkables
Drinkable likes - chamomile tea, hot chocolate, flavored coffees
Edible likes - Chocolate (real stuff, not Palmer or other 'discount' chocolate flavored chocolate), nuts, crackers, old-fashioned candies
Drinkable dislikes - anything alcoholic, green tea, anything minty.
Edible dislikes - anchovies, marzipan, any snacks from the dollar stores that aren't major brands.

With regards to the Keri Smith journal - I have re-routed my journal (which was meant for you) to the person that has not received. If/when you return to swapping, please let me know before rating me for this swap and I will create you a new journal. I hope you are well, Gini

Swap; We are So Different But Are So Similarity
Hope you are keeping well and busy. Same as yourself can't get around much, but thankfully like yourself love crafts.
I have two cats, a black beast, His Nibs, and a red long haired one with white feet he's Socks. Enjoy your little kitten, they are fun to watch they always love the wool.
You are a girl after my own heart. Buttons yarn fabric, cannot get enough or past any bye. Don't feel so guilty now that I am in swap-bot and can share. Have a lot for paper crafts too. We will get you started into the paper crafts soon.
What is a friendship book, is it like a scrapbook
Bye for now, hope to swap with you in the near future. Keep safe Alice
We Are So Differents But We Are So Similarity
Oh deary, send me your addy and I will send you a friendship book so you can see what they are all about. I love swapping nice and neat ones. Since you have things for paper crafting it would put them to good use. I would love to help you get started with FBs... or other items like slams, decos, label bags and the such.
Glad to see you on Swap-Bot and hope you stay for quite sometime. :)
