Favorite Crafts

Aprons, Screen printed T-s, Stamps, and Knitting. Lots and lots of sewing, the past two years I have handmade all my Christmas presents for my family and friends.

Favorite Books

Three cups of Tea, Catcher in the Rye, Middlesex,Fugitives and Refugees, Strand, and Flags of our Fathers.

Favorite Movies

Harold and Maude, Stand by Me, Shawshank Redemption, Band of Brothers, Charlie Bartlett, Mean Creek, and Rushmore.

Favorite colors, fibers, food,

My favorite colors are browns and greens, earth tones are always good. I took a fibers analysis class last year and since then I really don't like to use synthetic materials, the exception being yarns like Brown Sheep which uses 95% wool and 5% synthetic to give it a little stretch. As far as fabric goes I mostly use 100% cotton or wool.

About Me

Hi! I am a 20 year-old who recently moved back to the Portland area after starting a degree in Apparel Design. I currently work full time ( I'm trying to save money to pay for art school next year) but I look forward to the weekends when I get to spend as much time as I want in my basement studio sewing and doing stamps or screen printing.

Comment: From the PM that I sent after the swap (and got no reply): I got your package, and I'm sorry to say that I don't think it meets the swap requirements. I like most of the fabrics you sent, but the box wasn't as full as it should be for a flat-rate swap. The whole point of using a flat-rate box is that it should contain enough fabric that it is heavy enough that it would be more expensive to ship it normally. The box you sent was only about 2/3 full (or maybe even only 1/2 full, if you packed it down), and obviously was light enough that you reboxed it to save money on shipping. Sorry to be a stickler, but I believe swap-bot only works if people rate fairly.
