Favorite Music
All kinds - I am a digital music teacher. I love anything music related when it comes to crafts - stickers, paper, etc. I have bought sheet music at yard sales to us for ATCs but frequently can't bring myself to cutting them up!
Favorite Books
When I retire I am going to read (and craft!) all the time! Not much time now! I did read several books over the summer...finally read the last Harry Potter before I went to see the movie.
Favorite Crafts
ATC's, machine embroidery, sewing, crocheting, clay, like to try most any craft.
About Me
- mother of 2 teenage boys
- public school teacher for 29 years - music, computers and digital music - elementary and middle school
- handbell director at church
- breast cancer survivor (since 2006) and again in 2010

I really like all colors. I like black as an accent color for anything. Rainbows (traditional or non-traditional) are cool, too.
Apparently I am a craft-a-holic (or just a hoarder) but I can't seem to pass up on craft things on sale or at garage sales. Before I throw things out, I find myself saying "Hmm...can I use this on an ATC?" So, if you are worried about me liking anything you send me - don't! I love getting inspiration from other's work and bits and bobs from everywhere!
I am really partial to denim - not sure why. Maybe its a baby boomer thing. I never seem to be able to get rid of blue jeans. I have visions of making an awesome denim quilt when I retire!
My birthday (and my grandmother's, too) is on Valentine's Day - so I am also partial to hearts of any kind!
Not Favorites
I am pretty accepting of most everything - even the things on this list - but if you are looking for things I am not really into - here some are:
occult, horror, nudity, wicca, flakers!
But - I am happy getting most anything - even these things (well... except the flakers!!!). To each his/her own!

I think your 'Who NEEDS a Valentine' swap is such a lovely idea! So nice to be able to spoil someone in need as well as ourselves! Well done.
Thank you so much for the angel package for the ATC destash swap! Very very much appreciated =)
Just stopping by to tell you I loved the ATC you made me for the advent swap. So many cool techniques all in one ATC! Thanks for hosting such a great swap!
Hey there ~ hope you're enjoying the winter days... I'm wondering whether my 'non-US' ATCs for the USA ATC make up swap #5 have made it to you safely... It's been a while since I sent those... Best wishes =^.^=
I receive the thank you PC from Namibia! Thank you! I hope your niece received mine! :)
I've already made my Zentangle P, although M hasn't even been assigned yet. I guess I got a bit excited by the whole thing! So glad you're hosting these!
Hello jj9jj - I just signed up for an account today, and saw the listing for the Zentangle ATC swap, and since I had never heard of Zentangles before and found it pretty interesting, I signed up for the swap. I'm a total newbie, and have looked at the FAQ page, but just wanted to confirm - you will send me a mailing address of someone that I'm supposed to send my ATC to, is that how it works?
Thanks for the tip on making a wash. :)
thanks so much for angeling the zentangled c atc swap!!
