I am crafty person from way back. Sewed my own doll clothes. I learned to knit in the 4th grade. I've been quilting, sewing & scrapbooking lately. I had been a sales rep for an arts & crafts, Doing that gave me quite an accumulation of books & supplies. I've Tole painted, stenciled & cross stitched. You name it, I've tried it. I'm an avid gardener. But I don't like weeding! I like flowers and herbs. My favorite flower is the pink rose!
I AM NOT A FLAKER. If you don't get my package...it got LOST. Email me asap!!!

I was born in Canada but I grew up in Columbus, OH. Went to school there [OSU], got married there, had 3 kids there and moved to Delphos in 1983. Downsized our lifestyle & love the country life. I've had a variety of jobs over the years, permanent & part time jobs; outside sales, cashier, office manager, administrative assistant & right now I work for the Area Agency on Aging as a Case Aide/IT Assistant.

I like a bit of everything. Country, Pop, Jazz, Contempory & Rock.

Listened to all of Harry Potter. Si-Fi. I esp like historical type of books. Biblical times, Elizabethian, Egyptian etc. I've read a lot of Oprah's Picks.

Everything Star Trek [just saw the last movie & loved it], James Bond & oldies. We watch movies on tv mostly when we do. Foreign films are great!

Right now I'm really into scrapbooking, Knitting & Quilting. I like bright colors esp pink & lime green. Really like all shades of green. I'n not really into Christmas thems. I like Asian type fabric & prints, Amy Butler, Civil War prints & all Moda. like artsy creative kinds of things. Not so much the project as the challenge. I love to learn new techniques and apply them to what I'm working on. Just send me whatever colors you like! I'm working on knowing more about making ATC's & mini-zines.

I love Kawaii, postcards from all over, stickers, charms & kitchy stuff. I love to travel.

I collect postcards and "floatie" pens from all over.

I also have a Lady Bug Collection! Scarry!

I swap with Swap-bot!
