Important Info: I'm doing a lot of traveling right now, so not doing a lot of swaps but if you'd like a postcard of a certain area I'll try to find one if my travels take me there.
I most enjoy crochet and sewing. I make things to sell, for gifts and make some of my own clothing (I'm plus sized so making my own is cheaper and fits better). I love making amigurami.
I have many interests so it's hard to remember to list everything, but I'm pretty open so don't be afraid to ask. I currently live in western Pennsylvania but have also lived in Tennessee, Nebraska, Ohio, Oregon and Kentucky
Likes: Yarn. cute fabric. pretty paper. paper/stickers/cutouts/quotes for junk journals. Blues, greens, red, black. Cats, butterflies, frogs, dragonflies, cardinals, red wing black birds. Stitch, Toothless. Strawberries.
A few years ago I finally learned to crochet and love making amigurami. That now takes up a lot of my creative time. I sew, anything from bags to skirts and from billfolds to hats. I dabble in many other things as the mood hits but crochet and sewing are the biggest.
If you're thinking of sending me wearables, please know that I am a large woman. I'm tall and fat. Even hats need to be large since I have thick hair. I love aprons but the tie strings must be extra long.
When it comes to food, I have pretty much no allergies. I do not drink coffee or teas or any "light" drink mixes (crystal light, etc), they all taste nasty to me. I do however love chocolate and soft cookies.
I don't wear jewelry too often and do not have pierced, well, pierced anything. Bracelets are fine, a necklace once in a while but that's about it.
I collect games, mostly board and card games.
I sew a lot so fabric is appreciated as is thread of all colors. Same goes for zippers and canvas strapping.
I've got quite a few rubber duckies but new odd duckies are enjoyable.
I want to collect all the 50 states magnets, currently I have: Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia
My favorite colors are electric blue and emerald green, I love red and black mix and rich blue and black mix. Bottom of the list is brown, most neon colors, orange and white (and pink and yellow are only some things or shades). It's rare that anything of those colors is to my liking. Favorite smells are blackberry and lilac. I'm allergic to cigarette smoke.
If you feel that you should have received your item (package, card, email, etc) but have not seen it yet, please let me know before you rate. I will do my best to see where the thing went mia or otherwise fix the mistake.
I always try my best to get things sent out as soon as possible after being assigned. I give great thought before joining a swap, if I question my ability to fully complete it, I move on and don't join. As soon as I receive something I try to rate asap. I add a comment or heart if the item inspires me to do so. I always view profiles of those I am sending to and if possible match the item to the profile. I feel like viewing the profile of the person I am sending to, considering a star for the swap leader and rating people who send to me should be requirements for being on Swap-bot and I try my best to always do each of those.
Sadly I've now been flaked on by multiple people so I guess it's time to start trying to keep track of the undesirable swapers:
