About Me

  • I go to Washington and Lee University. We're the Generals or "Gennies" for short. Our school colors are royal blue and white. I love it, and I love anything that makes me think of it. I'm a little obsessed with Generals Washington and Lee ...

  • I'm a pi phi (pi beta phi) and I LOVE it! ... always looking for cute things with angels (but not grandma-ish or Christmas-y), arrows or things in wine & silver blue

  • I like to ride horses. I recently joined my school's riding team, and I've been competing in IHSA competitions. I'm also looking to get involved in foxhunting :)

  • My roommate and I nicknamed our apartment "Whoville," and named all of the plants after characters from the Grinch. Cindy-lou lives in my room, Max the dog is a hanging plant outside of our door, the Grinch is next to the trash can, etc. etc. etc.

Favorites/Dislikes

I usually don't pick favorites, but I'll put a few in to give ideas:

  • Colors: royal blue, wine & silver blue, blue-ish purples, pea/lime greens, pinks

Dislikes: I'm really not that picky. I'll basically like anything you send (especially if it's handmade), but ...

  • kitchy stuff like toaster or tissue box covers ...
  • things knit/crocheted with fuzzy novelty yarns ... I prefer to be able to see patterns even if it's a simple garter or stockinette
  • coffee (& stuff with coffee themes)

Current Obsession(s)

  • Riding stuff
  • My apartment (and it's name ... I've been contemplating making a sign to hang outside the door)
  • Non-flowering plants :)

Crafts

I usually don't have the best access to craft supplies. I keep most things I need in my room, but sometimes I have to improvise. I'll do my best with crafty swaps, but I might try to have things made before I sign up for a swap ... which means they probably won't be super personalized (though I might surprise you!)

That said I like to ...

  • knit & crochet - lately I've been into making teddy bears and other stuffed things
  • make greeting cards, inchies, ATCs ... paper things.
  • doodle (does that count as a craft? haha)
  • embroider doodles
  • have done a bunch of other random stuff and love trying new things as long as I don't have to get lots of new stuff to do them lol

Comment: I received your inchies today. Being new to this, I'm just beginninng to understand all the possibilities in design, but I hadn't thought of designing them in a series where they build upon one another. Very creative! Thank you.
Response: I'm glad you liked them! I had fun making them :D I'm pretty new to this, too ... I can't wait to see the ones I was sent to get ideas.
