Hi there~ I am new to swap-bot.com but here is a little bit about me. I am a stay-at-home mom of one. I just learned how to sew this year and I am totally addicted to fabric. I love bright modern fabric!! I am also looking for light grey fabrics (maybe wool felt) to use on my Christmas ornaments. I am not a quilter but would like to try some day.

I have been making jewlery since I was a kid and this year I opened my own Etsy shop: www.lilymagnolia.etsy.com

I am also a scrapbooker but haven't had time or inspiration lately to get into it. Maybe a good swap will get back into the scrapping mood! I always love vintage looking supplies and I need to re-do my daughter "it's a girl"page. Also, I really like those little bling stickers (you know...the little diamonds). I am a fan of simple scrapbooking styles.

I am really into scandinavian design. One of my favorite blogs is: http://chezlarsson.com/myblog/ My family is from Denmark and I love all things Danish. I would love Danish flag anything(stickers, stamps, paper, fabric) Knomes, Royal Family inspired.

I need: alphabet stamp sets, grass stamp, heart stamp, the word "love" stamp, silver earwires, silver findings, swarovski crystals, buttons, iron-ons.

I don't need: Themed scrapbooking material (as in disney, Elmo and the like), boy scrapbooking material, plastic beads, Holiday scrapbooking material, Holiday fabric

Currently I am watching: Dexter, Mad Men, Grey's, Big Love, The Office...

I love Fiction. I just finished Jodi Picoults "Second Glance". And now I am starting Steig Larssons "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". I have a long list of loved books and will add to it as I go along.

I really like most kinds of music...I am not really into Country or Rap but I can appreciate why other people might like them. My life is really loud now that I have my daughter and I am really enjoying quite time. Lately I have been listening to relaxing music that I can play softly while I craft.

The crafts I am doing now are Jewlery making for my Etsy site, scrabooking my daughters "first year" book, and sewing things like baby bibs, PJ's, purses, baby blankets.

Someday I would love to learn how to Knit. Also I would like to make my daughter a quilt for her bed.

The designers I have been watching are: Lotta Jansdotter, Heather Ross, Jodi Kahn, Anna Maria Horner, Amy Butler and Amy Karol. I would love patterns or fabric from any of these designers.
