I'm a mommy to a cheeky 2 yr old. I love baking, knitting, crocheting and crafting. I tinker in all sorts of crafts and I'm pretty sure I'm a master of none.
I don't craft as often as I'd like to nowadays though because of the hectic job of being a mommy to a climbing, tumbling, running, rummaging baby girl. Nowadays, my job is to stop her from climbing chairs and stairs.
I bake for a living. I have a thing for sweet treats. So it's a good profession. I do it from home though and have only started recently.
I love perusing through baking and decorating books but don't care much for cooking books.
I love knitting, crocheting, and sewing for myself, others and my blythe dolls! I will occasionally knit for my friends when I have the time.
I recently started collecting blythe dolls and I must say it's starting to become and addiction. A very serious and expensive addiction. But I'm not complaining. :)
I love letter sets. I used to write letters alot but not anymore since my life was taken over by my daughter.
I'm also a bit of a geek and love all things tech. When I am free, I love playing games on my WII, DS or XBOX. (Yes, I'm a closet gamer)
I don't care much for fashion and will mostly be seen in jeans and a tee/shirt/blouse of some sort. I don't wear skirts or heels. I do appreciate pretty shirts and blouses though but only wear long sleeved ones.
I don't drink or smoke. Have never been able to hold my liquor and smoke leaves me short of breath.
My favorite colors are blue (baby, turquoise, sky blue; mostly sweet looking blues), pink and green. I also love these combos pink & brown, green & yellow, and any nice blue combos.
J-pop, r&b, easy listening, oldies.
Anything from Neil Gaiman, Chic-lits, Terry Pratchet, Knitting books, Knitting Mags (Simply Knitting), Crochet books, Dessert Books, Cake decorating books
Narnia, The Incredibles, The Bucket List, Stardust, Midnight sun (taiyou no uta)

Knitting, Baking, Crocheting, Sewing

Yarn! lots and lots of yarn. I love cotton yarn, wool, mohair. Reallly wanna try bamboo yarn. Mostly hard to find stuff in Malaysia. We only get acrylic here.

Imported candy. Yum! I have a sweet tooth for all things sweet. Hee!!
tiny ric rac trimmings. Tiny pom pom trimmings for sewing dolly clothes. Tiny buckles and buttons. Basically accessories for sewing dolly clothes. Can't seem to find them anywhere!
More tiny buttons!! I love buttons, can you tell?
Fabric ribbons, velvet ribbons. Dainty lace.
Farbenmix ribbons. Ribbons, trims with fairytales on them.

Fabric scraps, especially cotton (both stretchy and woven kind).
Felt scraps. Even oddball yarn (enough to make something out of it)
Cotton jersey for making blythe tights, stripey socks (preferably thin stripes).
knitting magazines or books. (preferably of baby clothes or softies. But not simply knitting cause I buy that regularly)

Polymer clay tools.
Sculpey.
Liquid sculpey
Japanese origami paper. Pretty paper.
Stickers, rub ons for scrapbooking.
Stamps, inks.
Embossing glitter, embossing ink, embossing pens.
Mr Potato Head parts for my 2 yo. I already have the construction worker set. But anything else would be welcomed. We don't get much variety over here.
Yellow, magenta, sea green, navy blue sculpey.
Not really a postcard person, but I won't mind if I receive them. I would love illustrated ones though.
Acrylic yarn.
Since I live in Malaysia, swaps will take a little longer to arrive. It can take up to 2 weeks for my packages to arrive.
