I am married, mother of two, grandmother of 1. New York is not my home state, I am from the west coast. I have lived in Arizona, California, Washington, Alaska and now New York.

Besides MrBill (the hubbs), the loves of my life have all been doxie dogs. I currently have 4 of the crumb bums: Maxwell, Samantha, Twisted Sister Sadie, and Penny (short for Pencil Neck, long story, but she seems to have been made of spare parts).

My favorite crafts:

Sewing
Beading
Wirework
Crochet
Cross Stitch
Machine Embroidery
Weaving

Country music is my favorite, not the real old twangy stuff though.

I watch mostly:

HGTV
TNT
USA
History Channel
Discovery Channel

Don't watch much NetWork TV. Too much drama and violence

...prefer vibrant over washed out, like deep purple over lavender.

...favorite colors are deep purple, emerald green, dusty rose, magenta, black and electric blue.

...like doxie dogs, frogs, chili peppers, hearts, butterflies, cute bugs, buttons, glass beads (any), wooden spools, shamrocks, leprachauns, snowmen, penguins, pigs, cows, oh boy, the list is too long.

...never acquired the taste for tea or coffee, I prefer a coke.

...love dark chocolate, sunflower seeds, ice cream and anything hispanic cooking - well, not tripe.

...am not fond of polka dots, please only send something with polka dots on it if you really don't like me :o)

...Marvy Liquid Applique - all colors ...Yarn, yarn and more yarn!
...Steam Punk Items
...Seed beads - all colors
...Metal beads
...Lamp work beads
...Charms
...Fat Quarters
...DMC embroidery floss - solid colors
...Sculpey Clay - any color
...Hand Made Journals
