I´m a addictive crafter - mainly sewing, but other crafts too..... :) What I´m really not good in: drawing, very accurate and complicated patchwork ( I´m more the impulsive woman I guess...) And what a pity, I can´t knit anymore (I have trouble with my right hand)....

I love buttons - maybe because my grandmother AND my mother didn´t throw away just one single button - you never know when you may need it..... I´m 40 years old, married and mother of two sons - 12 and 10 years old.

What I like -bright colours like lime green, sunny yellow, seet pink,… -soft colours too, especially when they remind me of ice-cream in summer -ribbons -colourful buttons any sizes - nice and funny modern fabrics (eg Flutterby - Tula Pink or Fresh Sqeezed from Moda) - Japanese fabrics (they make so funny fabrics) - handmade stuff (bags, purses, softies) - wonky log cabins (because I started to try to make quilts – but very small ones at the moment ) - paper and fabric recycling (give the things a new use) - anything with cats - I LOVE tea in all variations - I (of course) LOVE chocolate in all variations (except from sheeps milk, or soy milk – I really don´t like anything soy) - bath stuff – I love to have a bath in the evening (eg foam bath, oil bath, so little bubbling balls – what is the name? – everything which smells fine

What I don´t like - gothic stuff - neon colours - everything made of soy (brrr) - fabrics like America the Beautiful by Judie Rothermel or these: fabrics reproducted from the last century - Shabby Chic or traditional ones - no musk, coconut fragrances - hibiscus tea - artificial flavours - wool - just because I can´t not use it :)

We have a black cat which we complete adore - a beautiful black (and spoiled) boy :)
