Okay hi everyone reading this. I am happily married mother of three young ones. So time is precious. Fairly involved at school and church.

My favourite time of year is Christmas, love all the festivities. I love collecting Christmas decorations.

If I don't get chocolate on a daily basis, then people get hurt!!! Kidding but really love most choc, prefer dark choc and none of those liquor thingys.

I love Van Morrison, Tom Jones, Billy Joel, Elton John, Queen and an Australian artist John Farnham. Love the sound of gospel music, the style in the movie O Brother Where Art thou?

I love patchwork and quilting. Have just done a pin cushion swap, had so much fun wanted to do it again. Love fabric in light/apple greens, pastel pinks, and those dark burgendy reds. Shabby chic style with big roses, or just the all over small tone on tone stuff. Like to combine some sticheries with the patchwork at last count can only do backstitch or running stitch!!!!

Also do mosaicing, scrapbooking (little bit), stamping (less bit!!). Have always loved restoring furniture, everything about it from making the find in some trash and treasure market, to taking it home, cleaning it up, and then putting it in the house.

Nigella Lawson cookbooks, anything Martha Stewart. Also enjoyed reading Elm Creek Quilt Series. Nothing like a designers book, ie Blackbird Designs etc.

fabric, patterns, books, something knitted (can't knit), thread, handmade cards, scrapbook supplies, stamps, something you made, Christmas decorations, something my 11 and 6 year old girls would love, pens, and tea towels(i know strange). And always always chocolate!!!!

Japanese paper, hello kitty and the like stuff, pens that don't work, used stuff (unless the swap called for it or was vintage, and knitting yarn (can't knit so..........)
