Heartfelthandmade

I am 37 yrs old and married for 10 years, although we have been together for many more (we met when I was 16). Mum to Maddie, 6, and Georgie, 3. I'm a full-time mum and evening crafter. I love all things felt and fabrics. Red with white Polka dots is my absolute fave, I like stripes and gingham checks too. I do love teacups, spotty jugs, unusual cookie cutters, pin cushions, toadstools, gingerbread men, rainbows, cupcakes, hearts, lollipop trees, cute birdies and so much more. My favourite drink is coffee...I'm addicted and I received the most amazing coffee machine for Christmas - think of the money I will save by not going to coffee shops! I would normally order a tall decaf skinny caramel latte (sometimes with cream - although that kind of cancels out the 'skinny' part!!) I love cupcakes with buttercream swirls and hope to perfect that swirl sometime soon. My favourite place I've been to is Alaska, followed closely by North Devon. Sparkles and glitter, buttons and ribbons, felt and fabric, coffee and cake all pay a big part in my life. I love red, green, blue, pink, green, (pale/duck egg) blues, lemon and I love combining these colours too. xx

I love felt and fabric crafts, cupcakes, I always need new PIN CUSHIONS, needle cases, aprons, tea towels, drinks coasters, polka dot anything, scotties, hearts, gingerbread men, russian dolls, owls, bambi, flower brooches/corsages, birdies, little houses, mushrooms, toadstools, cute monsters(!), beach huts, bunting, strawberries, polka dots, stripes, japanese fabrics, cath kidston, laura ashley, greengate, tilda, amy butler, Michael Miller and so much more! I love anything handmade. Craft books - sock toys, felt ideas.

I love red and white, green, pink, blue and red, aqua and pink, lemon and aqua, pink and red, pink and brown, blue and brown, pink and lime. Lots of colours!

My kitchen is red, white and blue and I'd like anything for my kitchen to be in these colours - especially polka dots, stripes, gingham and union jack styles.

Not keen on very dark fabrics, skulls, dark purples, oranges (unless it's halloween!), not a tea drinker (I like coffee (especially decaf) and hot choc), traditional fabrics, gold, silver, peach.

I use all kinds of felt, fabrics that are floral / stripey / polka dots / cupcakes, buttons - all kinds - vintage / new/ 2 or 4 hole, mostly little ones though - not giant buttons, I use ribbons - all kinds - satin, grosgrain, ricrac, organza - not too wide. I use all threads in all colours.
