As for me I LOVE sewing right now. Am into cute kawaii japanese print fabrics, also like using lots of felt & buttons. Always on the hunt for Zakka patterns & ideas...But love all things to do with sewing! (I mainly make bags, aprons, cushions, pins, purses...)

I do scrapbook too but am so obsessed with sewing that it's taking a back seat at the mo!

Not sure if it would count as a craft or not but am collecting japanese stationery too. (which sometimes inspires the sewing projects)

Can't do or not into crochet, tricky knitting, cross stitch, ATCs or altered art... Wouldn't want to get anything for jewellery making either as this is an old hobby of mine & have way too many supplies already!

Hope this doesn't make me sound real fussy because truth be known I just love crafts & postie parcels so hey ho it will be nice to get something through the post just for me to play with!

Happy swapping folks!

I like scrapbooking , sew, so i would love to get: fabrics, buttons, ribbon, paper, embelishments, paper punch, glass beads, etc.

DONT WANT any wooden/plastic/fimo beads please!!!!

I love to crochet and knit. And I especially love yarn oddments. I think I'm addicted. At the moment, I'm making a blanket just from yarn oddments, but I'm kind of going through the rainbow. Soo anything yarn really. Buttons as well. Lots and lotsa buttons!

Apart from that, I love to do any crafts and am always open to new ideas. Anything will be greatly appreciated!

isisanyanka 07/25/2007 #

Okay in case I get you leigh what exactly are yarn oddments ?

smp295 07/25/2007 #

donnasaurus1 07/25/2007 #

Hello

I love Cardmaking, Scrapbooking and making ATC's. My favourite is disney themed items. I also like the sticky gems and ribbons. I can't knit to save my life but would love some clear instructions for beginners, lol. Throught i might give jewerlly making ago too.

I can't cross-stitch anymore as for some reason my eyes can't cope with it, so please no cross stitch items.

Okay.. so i have a box which is 6x8x3 inches - almost the same volume as the stated box size (actually a leettle bit larger) - would that be ok? I'm just not sure i can find the exact right box size... :)

Pretty origami paper, letter sets, interesting buttons, strange stickers (i love insects), or vintage photos/images

My profile is full of my interests and crafts preferences. I'm very easy to please.
