About Me

I am a biology professor and a mother of a rambunctious little girl and two bonus teenage boys. I am a self-professed nerd. Seriously. I'm curious about lots of things, other than biology. I knit, weave, spin my own yarn, sew, crochet, wire wrap, and do most anything fiber arts related. I also paint D&D/Pathfinder miniatures and play Pathfinder with my hubby.

Crafts I Do

Knitting (for over 30 years)
Weaving
Spinning yarn (for over a decade)
Sewing (for over 30 years)
Quilting
Toy making, stuffies
Wireworking around stones

I basically have tried anything craft-related I can do with my hands and several crafts are not listed here that I have tried.

I tend to collect fiber (wool, yarn, fleece, etc) and fabric (batiks especially, but any fabric that is not countryish or rustic looking). I tend to like bright and bold colors in my fibers.

Likes and Dislikes

Favorite Colors
* blues
* greens
* purples
* reds

Least Favorite Colors
*oranges
*browns

GENRES
* Film -- science fiction, mysteries, action, comedies, romantic comedies, etc
* Books -- science fiction, fantasy, romance, paranormal romance, steampunk.

Interests

  • Steampunk. I love steampunk. My husband and I dress up for a Renaissance Festival every year now and I dress either as a fae or in Steampunk. I'm still developing my costumes though.

  • Developing my hobbies. I am a serious learner when it comes to hobbies. I've tried almost anything and love to read how to books.

  • Pathfinder/Dungeons & Dragons player. My husband and I started playing together a few years ago and now we have hundreds, maybe thousands, of miniatures and game items. I paint the miniatures, but my hubby makes most of the game items to use in his GMing.

Items I Collect

  • Fabric -- batiks, fat quarters, strips, all kinds of fabric.
  • D&D Miniatures
  • Yarn
  • Thread
  • Beads -- glass and gemstone beads. I do not like plastic beads or ceramic ones

Comment: I love her and it is worth waiting! Thank you for extras for me to use in future dotee making.
Response: Sorry she was a bit later than I had planned. She was fun to make. My daughter helped with the colors, so hopefully she will blend with the styles you like.

Comment: Oh my goodness you did a wonderful wonderful job on this Annette! I love everything......a beautiful house-pouch full of 5" batik charms...now what could be better? Thank you so much!
Response: Yay, I'm so glad you liked it. At one point I looked down and realized I had a gingham fabric for the roof and was trying to figure out how close to plaid that was, so it got redesigned. LOL. Enjoy the batik charms!
