Favorite Crafts

I love doing just about any craft. The one I've been working on the most lately is my knitting. I also love to work with polymer clay, jewelry making, trinket boxes and I just bought a Cricut machine so am venturing into paper as well.

Favorite Books

I read a lot of different books and am a hard cover freak. I'm not sure what it is about paperbacks but I really don't like them much. My favorites are probably Sci-fi, adventure, and mystery but I've also been reading stuff on world war two and such lately.

Some of the main authors I have are Clive Cussler, John Jakes, Annes McCaffrey, Marion Zimmer Bradley, James Bradley, Neil Gaiman, Fred Saberhagen, Nora Roberts, Daniel Steele, Mary Stewart

About Me

I live just outside a rural town in central Oregon. I like the outdoors and pretty much anything you can do out there like backpacking, hunting and fishing, or geo caching and picture taking. My kids are all grown and the last one just left the house a couple of months ago and that and being a tele-commuter allows me more time for hobbies now.

I don't really have a favorite color or any color I really dislike it just depends on where it is used.

Note: For those allergic I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a guinea pig. It's not like I let them all roll around on things before I send them but I know some people are highly allergic so feel I must mention it.

Favorite Television

Ok I must be getting older. I LOVE the science, learning, national geographic and history channels. I am on those more then anything else. I don't like to watch much though as I feel like it is wasted time. Now that I can knit while watching I am enjoying it a bit more often.

Some series I've watched when they were on or currently watch are FarScape, Sanctuary, Ghost Hunters, House

Things I like or not..

I am open to most things and like most things. I love useful things or things with an unusual twist.

I love cinnamon and chocolate, coffee and tea.

I'm not real fond of mint and really dislike black licorice.

I do like to try new things.

I like dragons and other mythical things.

I prefer not to get anything political or strong smelling. I like candles and wax tarts just not too strong.

Favorite Movies

It is hard for me to pic a favorite as what I like is across the board of just about all kinds of movies. Some examples are of course anything James Bond, lol... The Lord of the Rings series, Ice Age, Ice Age2, RV, yep gotta have the fun ones in there. Letters from Iwo Jima, Indiana Jones series, Pirates of the Caribbean series.

Comment: Christi! Thank you so much for everything you sent. I love it all. The "plain" mug is such a pretty colour blue and the coupon (now hot cocoa) holder is awesome. I'm sure I'll stay warm this winter. :)

Comment: the squares were all beautiful, and in my favorite colors..i really really love the one that looks oriental and makes a cross. do you have the pattern you could pm to me ? thanks for the bracelet.. JO LYNN
Response: I didn't use a pattern. I've never done quilting before so I just tried getting a cross in there for you. That was actually my first one and it turned out too small because I didn't take into account all the seams. So I threw on a border. :-)

Response: Glad you like them. Was there anything I did weird/wrong as far as quilting goes? I wasn't sure how to deal with all the seams :-)

Thank you for the inchies (Beginners Inchie Swap #2). They're awesome! I especially like the faces. I would never have thought to make a face out of the soda can tab! Since there was a switch in partners I don't know how to give you an official rating but just for the record I'm giving you a "5" and a heart! Thanks again. nicolea75--Nicole
