About Me

I am a Canadian, currently living in Halifax (though I grew up in Ontario.) I love colour (all of them!), and messing about with any type of craft, especially fibre and paper crafts.

Favorite Music

Classic Rock (I know, it's a little oldschool, but I think it's because that's all I heard in the womb.) Anything I can bop my head to.

Favorite Movies

The Fifth Element. Mars Attacks. Alien VS Predator. No, I'm not kidding. The more aliens and the more action, the happier I am. Oh, a new favourite - Live Free or Die Hard. I love me some Bruce Willis action movie.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting and scrapbooking, with lots of others here and there: making cards, crochet, painting, beading, sewing... lots of things, really. I love colour. The brighter the better, and I'm the one stopped on the street staring at shiny things.

Favorite Books

I love to read fantasy and science fiction, as well as anything biographical or historical. And I like culture and gender studies stuff, as long as it's not unbearably academic. I hang out at the library, and I read all the time.

Allergies

Boy, do I hate having allergies, but what are you going to do? I am allergic to mohair (itchy, hives) and to synthetic perfumes (so if you're sending soap or lotion or something, please check that it has no scent or natural scent.) Other than that, go wild.

Comment: What a fantastic scarf! I'm ecstatic. It's beautiful. The olive really goes well, and enhances it, so I'm pleased it was there. Noro always have lovely combinations. And thank you for the fabric. My daughter is a coffee freak, so I may do something for her. Fabric is always welcome. A fabulous swap. Thank you so much :-)

Comment: Thank you for the card - not too cute at all. I can knit a bit but would do better if there were little hooks on the ends of the needles.

MrsQ on May 6, 2008:

Thanks so much for the very cool felted pouch! It was a great surprise to come home to yesterday...and the icing on the cake: the stamp you used wasn't cancelled! A nice little freebie from Canada Post after all that kerfuffle.
