About Me

Swapping is very exciting and important, so please let me know if you didn't receive something we sent or you felt we didn't meet the requirements. A "5" rating is important!

We're originally from England but living in beautiful Seattle with a Beagle. The main hobbies in our household are knitting, baking, drawing and painting.

A perfect day:

Wake up early after a good night's sleep and not need to work that day. Take a few photos, see some friends for a picnic lunch and start drawing or writing. Maybe visit a farm...

Next up is relaxing with a cup of strong black tea (with milk, of course!), biscuits and a good book. Or knitting something while watching a vintage movie or TV show.

The evening is either spent going out on the town with close friends or after cooking a meal curl up in front of a fireplace with a window to see the stars.

We can all dream, right? :)

Things I love

Favorite colors - green, blue, purple, grey

Postcards of traveling, gardens, yummy food or Europe

Family recipes (unusual bread recipes!)

Yarn, especially sparkly or chunky (please no 100% acrylic or cotton)

Japanese cute stuff, gel glitter pens

Belle and Sebastian stuff (love the band!)

Horses, cats, turtles

Old-fashioned tea cups

Unique buttons or embellishments (bear buttons!)

Fabric, especially lace, tweed, silk or felt

Pencil skirts from the 40s/50s, vintage notions

British chocolate like Flakes or Quality Street

Dislikes

Horror movies/books (skulls ok), strongly scented/artificial things (ok with natural scents), extremely loud colours (like neon yellow or green), clowns, toe-socks, white chocolate, things with fake sugars like aspartame, American-made chocolate, overly political/religious stuff.
