Well, I don't have a tv right now, so I depend on Netflix, my small DVD collection, and whatever I can watch on Hulu or YouTube.

That being said, my absolute favorite shows are British mysteries, particularly Poirot, Miss Marple and Rosemary & Thyme.

I also like to watch the old Perry Masons, Twilight Zone, and I love the Alfred Hitchcock Hour.

The only modern show that I like right now if 30 Rock. ;)

Anything that requires the use of scissors and glue. I don't feel like I've really been creative until I've had the chance to smear adhesive on something!

I'm mostly drawn to paper crafts, and anything fun and simple. I like working with little bits of different paper, found objects, and fabric scraps. I don't do any fine arts such as painting or ceramics.

I have tried teaching myself to knit time and time again to no avail. One day...

Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Uglies, Pretties, Specials... It's been surprising for me to realize just how much I love young adult literature, especially since I didn't really read any as a young adult!

Besides this, my taste in books is more old fashioned...

Secret Garden, Nancy Drew, The Betsy books by Caroline Haywood are some of my favorites.

I also love British mysteries by Agatha Christie, and the novels of Barbara Pym.

Lord of the Rings

I am here, first and foremost, for the experience. I love the idea that we are all taking the time to make and send nice things to each other through the mail. When I receive a card or a package it always brightens my day.

I am proud of what I make, and I would never send anything out that I wouldn't want to receive or make for myself. My crafting style is fairly clean and simple, so that will influence the packages that I put together for swaps. I get my biggest thrill out of planning what I will send, and then bringing everything together in the end. These swaps are a great way to rev up my creativity and keep me motivated in crafting.

I do my best with each swap. I'm not here to get something for nothing, or to skimp my way through swaps. I want to have a good experience here and maintain a positive presence in this community.

I happily receive anything that is sent to me in good faith. I am not a wish list sort of person, but am more interested in how others interpret different swaps.
