I love to knit, crochet, sew, quilt, cross stitch, and do embroidery. I have done some scrapbooking and would like to get more invovled in it.

I am always interested in having new threads for stitching. DMC, wool, silk ribbon, etc. I am happy with all colors.

There are many other types of handwork that I am intersted in, just haven't found the time! I would love to try Blackwork and would enjoy having a pattern and instructions for it.

I like most types of yarn, but not really that crazy about many of the Red Heart super savers. I am trying to get involved with different types of yarn: wool, silk, etc

I am always in the mood for new patterns. I even like vintage dress patterns. I use them to decorate my craft/sewing room. If you make something for me, I would appreciate it if you could send the pattern also. I may want to make one for someone else!

I don't really listen to music that much. I used to be into Disco when I was young! I enjoy hearing some of the oldies from the 70's and 80's. I enjoy classical sometimes. I really like Christmas music. Sometimes I like Country and pop.

I love books on CD. Pretty much would be willing to listen to any author.

I like most movies other than scary ones. I enjoy a movie that keeps me guess or that makes me cry. I still enjoy watching kids movies even though my daughter is almost 20. Just went to see Toy Story and Dispicable Me and loved them!

I am in my early 50's and have been a stay at home Mom for 12 years. I homeschooled my daughter until she went to college 1 year ago. I love being at home and taking care of my family and home.

In my previous life I was a Massage Therapist and prior to that a secretary. My partner and I move every 2 -3 years, so making friends on the internet is fun for me. I know that I can keep in touch with them!

I don't really watch too much television. I do enjoy Law and Order - SVU, The Good Wife and Greys Anatomy. Other than that, I can live without it. Oh yeah, I do enjoy watching the knitting, quilting and sewing shows on PBS.

I have many things that I collect. I love most anything that comes from the Victorian era. (Although I am not too into super frilly things).

Here are a few things I collect:

Teapots Cups/Saucers Creamers Sugar bowl Old silver spoons Old glass ware Salt dishes Butter dishes Salt shakers (Old ones) Doilies Chicken items Toothpick holders Egg Cups Sewing goodies (Old and new) Knitting goodies (Old and new) Crochet goodies (Old and new)

I know there is more, I will update when I think of it.

I think that there are very few things I don't like. I have always felt that I should try something new, so if you send me something I have never tried, I will try it and decide then.

I don't like rude people. I don't think it is too hard to put a smile on your face - perhaps it will pass on.

I don't like hunting, fishing, and most outdoors type things.

I am sure there is more, can't think of it now.
