About Me

G'day my name is Jaquelyn. I am married with 5 children. Varing in age from 13 down to 1. Keeps life interesting.

I have been doing different crafts since I was a child, which my children are starting to do. As I have 2 that don't sleep I get to do a lot of pieces done during the night as its something quiet that won't wake up the rest of the household.

Pets are 2 guienee pigs called tiny and pearl, and a beagle named sarah and 2 wild pigeons that come every day for tucker named rainbow and stripes.

My fav music would be Bon Jovi, Def Leapard and Nickleback. Thankfully my kids like my type of music and I don't have to listen to techno.

My fav books would be romance. but don't have time to read them as I prefer to do my crafts at night. Mixed with hard to read with the tv going all the time. So I suppose knitting books and craft mags for now. Dosn't require to much thinking.

Fav movies would be 3 musketeers, The Musketeer, (named my eldest D'Artagnan), The Man in the Iron Mask, National Treasure 1&2, Indianna Jones 1-4, Tomb Raider 1&2, The Librarian 1-3, Also like the occational kids movies ie. Mary Poppins, Wizard of Oz, care bears 1&2, my little pony 1&2, Mickey's Christmas carol, monsters inc., Ice Age 1-3 Toy story 1&2, and Thomas the Tank Engine (tv series and movie the magic railroad)(I love steam trains. They look awesome.)

Fav tv shows would be The Mentalist, Lie to me, CSI's, NCIS

Fav crafts would be knitting followed by papertole and other papercrafts ie cardmaking and bits and pieces. I also do cross stitch.

My fav colour would be blue, but I love varigated rainbow threads, they look so bright and cheerful.

Fav creatures would be dragons, unicorns, butterflies and hummingbirds.

Besides all things crafty ie. Papertole, Yarn, x-stitch, cardmaking, the list could go on forever. I collect shot glasses from different places. Everytime mum goes on holidays she picks up 1 for me. As I don't travel it's my way of having something from somewhere else. Cheap momento, but precious to me. Talking precious also like anything from Precious Moments they are so cute and adorable. Just started collecting postcards. (another way to see the world).

I collect yarn, scissors, tape measures, papertole, all things to do with cardmaking & scrapbooking. Shot glasses and now postcards.

I love mickey mouse, care bears, my little pony and eeore. And of course steam trains and old sailing boats. Fav flowers rose followed by tulips, pansies and daffidils.

I can't think of anything I don't like so I don't have a dislike list that I can think of.

I drink coffee hot or cold and chocolate hot or cold.

Please don't sent tea as customs have strict rules against this being sent into the country.

Fav sweet would be anything chocolate.

That's all I can think of for now. If you would like to know anything else just pm me. I'm normally awake for any timezone. As I'm down under, postage stamp will be a day later as were ahead by a day. So far whenever I have sent something over seas its taken up to 3 weeks. I always post on time but If someone hasn't recieved their parcel as it got way laid in the postal system let me know and I'll resend. It normally only takes me a couple of nights to remake and repost. PC's I always have on hand just incase. I'm not a flaker, I will always send.

I will leave a responce to my ratings comments when I can get onto a computer with the internet. My phone won't let me repond. It does let me rate though but it takes 2 shots at it. Won't let me click heart and 5 at the same time. So you might get two messages that you've been rated by me. And enjoy swapping...

Oh I couldn't think of a user name and my 3yo was watching new macdonalds farm and a song came on "it's better to knit than not knit" and the name kinda stuck.

Have a great day/night and take care.
