Hi my name is Amanda and I am fabric, ribbon and button mad I make handmade goods from felt and fabrics.

I make handmade crafts and I make plush called Lumpy Bears where each one is unique and you own the only one. I also made felt food gateau and cupcakes.

I love collecting buttons/ribbons/fabrics and I prefer buttons about 1cm-2cm big and I like the unusual ones with patterns/effects or or pastels. Nothing dark or black.

Ribbons I like to use them about 15-25mm sizing and again I like patterned ribbons and do not use plain ribbons.

I love collecting fabrics and usually collect small florals or multi polka dots unusual stripes/stars etc.

I do like some weirder patterns like cupcakes/ice cream as long as fabric is light coloured/pastels.

I do not use any kind of tye dye or plain fabrics.

My favourite type of foods etc are mainly plain food I do not eat anything spicy or hot.

In terms of candy/chocolate I like plain chocolate nothing with nuts/fruit/spicy/weird.

I do eat jelly items but again I prefer plain jellies and not the sugar ones or the sour etc.

I love stationary :) but doesn't everyone!?

I have to admit I like the cuter ones with the little characters on like the Japanese and Hello Kitty and Kawaii items.

My favourite colours have to be pastels and light colours. I do also like brights and some muted colours.

Anything like pinks (I do like hotpink), yellow, orange, blue, light green, mint, lilac, etc.

In brights I like things like custard yellow, hot pink, neon blue, lime green.

In muted I like olive green, sea blue etc.
