About Me

I live in Norwich, England with my two children, a girl (8) and a boy (1) and their dad.

I love to sew, would love to knit and need a cupboard for my fabric.

Favorite Music

I never really got into any particular music and just listen to whatever anyone else was. Then I either liked it or not. I like Royksop for driving at night, HSM when my daughter asks nicely and Norah Jones right now.

Favorite Books

I love to read or listen to books. I have studied English and German literature. I loved The Iliad, The Mill on the Floss and poems by Rilke. Outside of that I've enjoyed all of Banana Yoshimoto's books, The Secret life of Bees.

I love children's books, especially vintage ones, sci-fi, classics and foreign literature and since being pregnant again I've started reading crime novels.

And then there is my collection of craft books... always room for more.

Favorite Television

Battlestar Galactica, Heroes, Survivors, Merlin, Big Bang Theory,

Favorite Movies

Stardust, Princess Bride, old black and white films, Fred Astaire, Breakfast at Tiffanys (Audrey Hepburn in general)

Favorite Crafts

Anything involving beautiful fabric. Cute Japanese prints and vintage patterns.

Comment: Cornelia, thank you soo very much for the wonderful package! I've been wanting to read that book, it's right up my alley--the cover looks different here it makes it even more special to have this one. The mug is so beautiful and really looks special with my other ones. I'm going to make some coffee right now! My girls have already been eyeing the chocolate...Thanks so much for the extra wool from Wales, I'm going to make something special for myself with it. I just love it all!
