I had lost some swaps in the mail and is redoing them as of this moment. Please be patient. The list of lost swaps are at the bottom of the profile. I'm also catching up on my swaps. Please be patient. Update: All are taken care of.

what I pledged

I have pretty eclectic tastes in things. I do a lot of crafts. I'm into SCA, ren faire, steampunk, victorian, edwardian things. I am always hungry for books as I'm a voracious reader. I love chocolates, nuts, saltwater taffy, fruit chews, and gummy fruit candies. I also love japanese and chinese sweets.

My favorite crafts are needlepoint, cross stitch, quilting, omiyage, armor making, chain mail making, chain mail jewelry, origami, embroidery, sewing and costume making. I also collect buttons for sewing (funky, chunky, floral, fun shapes, animal, cute, original, wood, and natural materials).

I also love receiving books in these subjects especially old magazines or books on cross stitching and embroidery.

I am rather allergic to some perfume. So, unless I specified please don't sent me perfume. Essential oils are fine. Also, don't send me anything that is in parsley oil. I'm allergic to parsley oil.

favorite colors
I absolutely love all shades of red. I also love any shades of green and blue. I love any shades of purple, orange, yellow and brown, also. I love tie dye effects, batik or any kind of resist in fabrics. I am crazy about any shades of neon, flourescence, day glow, and glow in the dark shades.

I also love bright, loud and gaudy fabrics for crafting and quilting.
