I'm a student working on my pre-reqs for nursing. I like to craft :) and meet new people.
Smoke free and 3 cats home. Born and raised in CA, USA.
I'm open to all kinds of music.

Period Dramas- All renditions of Pride and Prejudice (1940, 2003, 2005, A&E Pride and Prejudice- mini series, Bride and Prejudice, Lost in Austen- mini series),Sense and Sensibility,Emma, Gone with the Wind...

I watch way too much. Pick a day and I'll tell you my favorite channels/shows :)
All-Time Favorite- I Love Lucy and We Love Lucy
I mainly sew, patternmaking/design, fashion sketching and knit.
I dabble in crochet, button making (accessory and closure), paper crafts, journals/ book binding and soapmaking (cold and hot process).
I'd like to learn more about dotee dolls, quilting, beading, spinning, felting and furnituremaking.
My favorite color... Overall, any shade of blue. This season I'm also into gray, black and tradtional autumnal hues.
My favorite color to craft/ create with... Pinks, bright bold colors and seasonal colors (reds, greens, blues, silver and white)
Fabrics... Quilting cottons from Alexander Henry, Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry, Ana Marie Horner, and many, many other designers (from Michael Miller, Robert Kaufman, Westminster Fibers and Moda Fabrics).
Japanese Fabrics; I LOVE kawaii prints :)
I also enjoy trims (ribbons, lace, piping, bias tape and buttons) and notions.
Prints... Polka dots, plaids, kawaii, novelty
Patterns... For sewing (clothing or craft), knitting or crochet. Any new DIY project
Sock monkeys (or animals)... supplies or finished products
Socks... Women's 9-11
Yarn... I'm easy going about the type/color. I'm currently knitting for a couple of charities and I'm trying to squeeze in a couple of projects for myself. I'm interested in trying out T-shirt yarn.
Quilts... Patterns, fabrics, doll quilts. Quilted coasters, pot holders or pouches. Quilting is on my to do list :)
Handmade items
Stripes, polka dots and ginghams too close in proximity to each other make me dizzy. Homespuns and batiks (This is a fabric I need to pick out for myself) Chocolate (yes, I'm a girl, but I prefer sugary sweets.)
I'm not familiar with ATCs and Inchies. If you happen to send me one please explain what they are or provide me with a link. Thanks!
Comments
It does not look like you are going to honor the swaps you were let into. I was the coordinator for the Ho Ho Ho Christmas Dishcloth swap. I will angel the swap for you since you disappointed your partner.
oops! Sorry for calling you Jen! I corrected that in my comment.
I started the doll last night. It is not finished, but coming along beautifully.

Thank you for the wonderful Dotee Doll kit... though I ended up not making a traditional Dotee.
Greetings JS! I just wanted to drop you a note and thank you for the concern you show for the health and well being of your swap-partners by asking for additional precautions you can take against pet allergies. I'm sure your partners will appreciate the time and effort you put into the packages you send. Thank you so much, as I have asthma and am also allergic to pet hair. I look forward to having you as a partner real soon! Swap-on buddie!
