Fellow Swappers, If you have not received a due swap from me, please contact me before rating! I do not flake and if something is not right, I will try to fix it! Thanks!

I am realizing how hard it can be to keep up with rating your partners! If you have not been rated and should have been, Please let me know! A gentle reminder is all I need and it will be done ASAP. Thanks!! :)

what I pledged

About Me

I enjoy trading and sharing my assorted artsy things! ATC's, crochet and sewing are my all time fav's.

I am newly married (5 months now) to my very best friend! He is so funny and sweet.

Together he and I have adopted a lovely mixed breed dog named "Maggie". She loves to run and play or snuggle with us and watch movies! Funny dog! :)

On July 19, we aquired a seven week old male kitten that we have named Max. He is a grey striped thing just barely bigger than my hand!

I have three kids from a previous marriage. They are all grown now, so I do not see them often. I enjoy what time I do get to spend with them.

Oh wow! I am a grandmother!!!!!! He is just adorable and wonderful and sooo very precious!!!!!!!!

Favorite Music

My most favorite music is classical. Bach and Mozart being top of the list, but I'll listen to most all of it.

One of my favorite singers is Voltaire. He does a sort of goth-gypsy sound. I also enjoy Pink Floyd, Ian Anderson (& Jethro Tull)...

But this does not by any means encompass all of the music I listen to. I also enjoy listening to NPR and Car Talk.

-My dh has been listening to this new album called Accelerate. It is kind of catchy and fun!!

Favorite Books

I love reading and like nothing better than a book and hot cocoa on a cold winters night! Of course, on warm summer nights I can still enjoy a good book, but am more likely to be outside watching the night sky. Some fav's are:

Harry Potter books

-most anything by:

Piers Anthony

Jenna Black

Nora Roberts

Rita Mae Brown & Sneaky Pie Brown *read "Wish You were Here"

I enjoy the light mysteries with animal sleuths!!!

Favorite Crafts

Top 3:

ATC's

Sewing

Crochet

Jewelry making

Tina Stuff

I enjoy trading and swapping crafts or art. I have been doing various trades/swaps for many years. I believe Swap-Bot will become my favorite due to its broad variety. It is not like joining a crochet group and trading squares and only squares. Here I can swap most any craft or art that I enjoy and many that I have never heard of. What a joy. I will continue with my other groups, as I have made friends there, but this.... Swap-bot is just amazing in its very nature and I am very excited to be a part of it!!!!!!

Some Things I Like or Don't...

One thing I like about swapping is seeing how others use their supplies. I appreciate others taking my taste into account on a swap, but first and foremost is your craftsmanship. I prefer to receive something wonderfully made, but not specific to my profile if that is what it takes to inspire you.

I like getting mail (that one should be obvious!), making and receiving handmade items, the color red, oh and green, brown, soft yellows, soft pinks, blue.... basicaly all colors, just in moderation and not all mixed together.

I love chocolate and candies made with chocolate and fruits or caramel.

I love fabric! Texture and color can pull me in for ages!! Fat quarters are always welcome. :)

My favorite animals are skunks, elephants, cats, and small cuddly critters. Racoons are kind of interesting as well.

I have a whole philosophy behind my admiration of skunks. It is not just their looks. Though the black and white look is very classic. :)

I do not collect any thing specific besides teapots. Unless craft supplies count and I try to use those.

I do not care for .... more later. :)

Color...

I enjoy most all colors. Mainly in this order...

green

red (red and green switch places often)

pink

blue

purple

yellow

orange

Prints are always welcome. I prefer small over large, but I can find a use for most any print fabric given time! :)

Candy...

I have no known food allergies.

Top of the list is chocolate and caramel!!! My two favorite together or individually.

All else pales in comparison. Yet, I enjoy anyway!! :)

I like fruits and nuts, combined or seperate. As I do not know of all the unique candies in this world I am not going to limit myself much.

I really do not like licorice.

I love toffees!!

Wish List

Things I like to receive:

-stationary -pretty envelopes -ATC supplies -fat quarters -Dotee Dolls -Dotee Doll supplies -ribbon -ATC's -scrapbook paper -yarn (prefer whole skein) -stamp and/or ink pad sets -buttons -inches in sets of 4 (do not need to match) -assorted mini candies (toffees, candy corn, harvest mix) -flavored chapsticks or lip gloss (Not vanilla please!!) -quilties -postcards -romance novels (if I receive one with a swap I'll return the favor!!!) - used books -no horror please -romance, sci fi, paranormal and fantasy are my favs -metal finding -german scrap -assorted beads - no plastic please -gel pens

Comment: Thanks for both postcards, they're great! I did this swap for/with my husband too, since I also do not drink beer. I wonder how many others did the same thing? Thanks again!
Response: I participated because I knew my DH would enjoy helping me find a special, local brew. We had fun creating the postcards. He also showed me how to remove the labels. We made a few ATC's with those as well! :)
