About Me

I am 42 and married with kids (16, 14, 13, 3).

I knit and crochet. I am learning how do crazy quilting too. I also collect interesting buttons and beads and fabrics. I have just recently started making things from recycled wool from sweaters and wool suits mostly.

Being from Vermont, almost everything I make is Wool...Cotton for the summertime though.

I love earth tones. Especially when paired with not so earthy tones like orange, pink, or turquoise.

Amy Butler & Michael Miller fabrics are some of my favorites.

I have long hair that I pull back quite often and I love cool barrettes (3 inch or so), especially hand made ones.

For fun...Anything Superman/Justice League!!

We just bought a new house that is decorated in TOTAL 70's Style (shag carpet and lots of orange). I think there is remodeling in my future ;)

I have discovered Dotee Dolls here on Swap-Bot. I have seen so many very cool ones made by swap-bot members. Wow!! I just love them and hope to participate in more dotee swaps as time permits.

Did I say I love handmade items...if you have a special craft don't hesitate to share it with me :)

Comment: This package came over a week ago, and I have been wrestling with myself on how to rate. I've even spoken to the host about this. What I will do is to give a "5" since I did receive a package of 12 gifts. They were not labeled (1 thru 12) so I'm wondering if they will fit the requirements when I open them. But I did receive 12 gifts, so I'm happy giving a "5" and I am so grateful that you followed through on the swap. Thank you, Marlena, - I look forward to opening my gifts. Joan UPDATE WOW - I cannot believe the awesome gifts you sent. While you did not do the numbers that were part of the description, you sent such wonderful items that I am giving you a heart. I couldn't live with myself if I did otherwise. This was an awesome swap. Thank you so much.
