About Me

Hi! My name is Patty and I live in Florida. I was a child care director for 25 years and now work part-time in an elementary school clinic. I have been married to the same wonderful man for 35 years.I have 4 grown and married children you live here in the same city along with 10 grandchildren. I love to sew for them. I have been quilting for about 5 years now and still learning new things. My favorite color is red but have recently become fond of aqua as well. I enjoy making dresses for my 7 grandaughters and am always looking for new free patterns on the web. Love to craft too. Especially if its something cute for the kids. And I LOVE to cook. I have a large ( my kids say too large) collection of cookbooks. I am super excited to join swap-bot and can't wait to really get swapping( done 3 so far) Thanks for the opportunity. I really am into all kinds of crafts. I search the web for great ideas and then give them a try. Right now I am into making cute dresses for my granddaughters so a yard of fabric goes along way. I also like making bows for them to match their dresses and love those rag looking flowers for headbands too. I do quilt but haven't made any in a while. Been too busy with other projects. My sweet husband just recently bought me a new sewing/embroidery machine and I'm having fun playing with that. I like all colors of fabric but usually work with cottons ( like flannel too) I like hot tea in the morning--after my coffee of course but went decaf a couple of months ago so herbal for me. Don't like plain green tea Needs a flavor. I like chocolate ( who doesn't) Cute buttons can always be used on something and of course ribbon for hairbows I hope this is helpful I'll keep adding as I think of things Oh and we have four chihuahuas. Penny and Pepper--Max and Maggie Two girls and two boys. They are our babies now. WE LOVE THEM!!

Favorite Music

I have all of Jim Brickman's CDs and most of Josh Groban. I really like to listen to thme when I am sewing or quilting. Gets my creative juices going. My husband likes country and I don't mind most of it , but I prefer something more soothing in the craft room. Know what I mean?

Favorite Books

I read sparaticly but when I do I like Nicolas Sparks, and crafting mysteries. Also culinary mysteries. Read a three of the quilting mysteries by Terry Thayer.

Favorite Movies

Of course I like Nicolas Sparks, seen them all.And I enjoy comedies and kid movies too. I don't like scary movies or bloody ones. Yuck!! I do enjoy action/adventure if it has a good story like too.

Favorite Crafts

Sewing, quilting,making hairbows of all kinds and stuffed animals for the grandkids. Found the cutest pattern for a stuffed football the other day and HAD to make it for the boys. Don't care for crocheting or knitting or hand embroidery. I'm a do it on the machine gal. Don't like hand work much. Too slow for me.

Collections

Everyone who knows me knows I collect three things. Strawberry anything, Angels and Teapots.

Comment: I recognize you did try for this one. The ribbon is my favorite color, and secure with whatever glue you used. The cover is a color combo I mention in association with flower themes and it is flower themed. However, the only thing you added was the ribbon. Not even some more stickers on the cover or randomly inside. I struggled with this swap too. Sounded great, but how does one 'artify' a pocket calendar? I'm not sure I know, and I'm more sure you do not know either. But I do thank you for the thoughts! I hope we cross swaps in the future in some swap where the creative juices flow more freely! Happy Yule!
Response: count your blessing. I didn't even get one yet.
