My name is Jenny and I live with my husband and two young children in a lovely Edwardian terraced house in London, UK. I love making things, especially hand sewing and also have a trusty vintage sewing machine. I love modern vintage and am enjoying decorating and filling my house with vintage fabrics and anything I buy from vintage shops. I can't walk past a charity/thrift shop without popping in!

Anything to do with sewing. I love making small softies and have recently made my first doll quilt. I enjoy attempting to read different craft magazines, especially Japanese ones. I hoard vintage fabrics, buttons, ribbons and ricrac and use them in my sewing projects. I definitely have a washi tape obsession but the more the merrier I say! I also collect postcards and love receiving postcards from around the world.

Roman Holiday, the Usual Suspects, the Lives of Others, anything with Audrey Hepburn in. I'm a member of a film club and trying to be more adventurous with the films I watch so feel free to recommend anything you like :)

America's Next Top Model, Person of Interest, Mad Men, NCIS, CSI, and anything by Stephen Poliakoff

gingerbread men and gingerbread houses, hand sewing; craft/sewing magazines; patterned felt and vintage fabrics; sewing notions such as ric rac, buttons and threads; my Blythe doll - a Takara Blythe 'Save The Animals'; Orla Kiely handbags; Cath Kidston fabrics; washi tape, collecting postcards; researching my family history and cookie cutters!

I don't drink coffee or flavoured teas except peppermint tea. However I think I'm easy to please and if you've put some thought into your swap I will be happy :)
