About Me

Firstly...I will never EVER flake! and I will always rate! If for some reason you don't receive,please, please, please contact me before rating! I thrive on being creative! In the past I have dabbled in pottery, weaving, paper making, jewelry, cross stitching, needle point, painting,sewing, smocking... etc. Even though I am lucky enough to have my own room devoted to sewing, and my art... I do spread all over the place. I am extremely Whimsical!

I have a very wonderful husband who puts up with me and my mess. We are proud empty nesters, proud parents of Lilly B, our rescue pup. Well, I'm proud and I think my husband just puts up with her. My life revolves around them both! I am an Interior Designer by degree. I have eight beautiful Grandchildren :) I keep a scrap book of my swaps with photo's and notes. I love going back through and seeing all the different things I have sent out and received. UPDATE i threw them all away when I moved last year and I regret it! Of course I love getting hearts but I love to give them as well. It is not necessary to send me extras to get a heart. Again,I do not flake! You bet I will reuse stamps when possible! :)

Favorite Crafts

Mixed Media, Quilting, embroidery, card making, applique.,,,..ATCs...Dotees. I am currently teaching myself to crochet... Like trying new things! I love watercolors and making Stuffies!

What I like

Anything Whimsy! ANGELS

mice rabbits gnomes fairy's ephemera horses sheep foxes batiks Fairies Mermaids Bats Wolves Dried teabags

Dislikes

Please do not send me anything religious! I don't like drab, not into vintage fabrics. I'm not into dishonesty and people that are angry. I don't like not having a maid. I find flaker's and non-raters, one in the same... and both equally frustrating and extremely annoying!

Favorite Music

I Like all sorts of music Country, 70s rock. Poco, Spirit... I like James Blunt, Van Morrison, Neil Young, Zac Brown, Adele, Train, Maura O'Connel...Keith Urban, Jason Mraz, Maroon 5, Bruno Marrs, Celtic, Brandi Carlile,

wish for

I wish I had a maid!. I wish I had a boat! I would live on the water! up date we bought a boat in 2018, lived on it for a year and did the American Great Loop! We sold the boat and now I wish we still had her as I would love to take her to Florida and live on her through the winter.

Comment: Thank you for your nice notecard that you made for me! Very pretty, did you also draw the flower? Your life sounds fun with the children popping in all the time, I lived next door to my grandparents when I was young for a time and I was always there visiting. Hope you have a lovely vacation!

Comment: Love your butterfly on a teabag card! You did an amazing job drawing him on inconsistent substrates - whenever I try something like that, one type of paper absorbs the ink funny and it's all wonky :) Thank you!

Comment: Hi Jody! What a fun filled weekend, with your Grands, daughters, and sister! Sounds like it was such a great time and I envy that you live that close to family!! I just got back from a trip to CO and loved spending time with my son and his family! They have our only Grand, so it is always fun - she is 15 months old and very busy! LOL! Today I am catching up on stuff and thinking how quiet it is! LOL! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
