About Me

I live in Athens,Maine - right outside of Skowhegan , for anyone that knows maine. I mainly do quilting but also dabble with a bit of crochet and altered crafts and have been known to make a purse or two. I have 2 wonderful dogs, Thunder a 6 month old Mastiff/Rottie mix and Memphis a two year old Rat Terrier. I have a wonderful boyfriend Larry who is the love of my life I am a mom to 4 wonderful children who make me smile everyday :) ** I am open to private swaps just pm me **

Favorite Crafts

I love to quilt , both sane and crazy quilt. I also make purses frome time to time and do a bit of crochet. I am a huge fan of prim stitchery also , I do a bit of redwork from time to time. I really have been itching to try my hand at making some stuffed animals but just haven't gotten up the corage yet.

What makes me smile

Likes: fabric - any kind both fancy and cotton, I lost my house 6 months ago and am slowly rebuilding my fabric stash. Beads of any type are always welcome I love laces and ribbons Charms really make me smile I love flowers, any flower but Iris's are my fav :)

Dislikes

I don't really dislike anything, if it comes from a friend it is always welcome :) However i am not a huge fan of pastel or neon colours.

I collect

pinkeeps( pincushions),needlebooks, mini quilts ( I have a wall that I am trying to fill ), anything to do with fantasy or dragons, turtles, handmade christmas ornies, elephants( would just love a elephant pincushion , or a pattern to make one!!!)

wish list

fabric, cotton or fancy( if you send me fancy fabric please solid colours or lightly patterened)I really love fall colours and civil war repo fabrics, sewing thread - any colours,purse handels, large buttons in pretty colours, needles, beads, trim, lace, mofits - for crazy quilts, silkies, tea - anything other then mint, charms,

I will try to make sure that tags are sent within two weeks, or within three weeks if they require me to make something. I will try to remeber to notify recipients when tags are sent, but I will always notify senders when tags are received.

Hi, When you can't find something, usually you can make them yourself and skeleton leaves are really easy. I found a simple how to for you on line. Arm and Hammer makes a good washing soda for this project. Just look for washing soda, not baking soda--its super cheap. Have fun!!! http://www.ehow.com/how2311836make-skeleton-leaves.html
