My name is Sherree, I live in Westminster, CO. I've been married since 1975 to my best friend Mike. We have 3 grown children and teenage grandson.
We have a little 4 pound Chihuahua named Darla, a Toy Poodle named Tyra and a orange tabby kitty named Winter Grace.
I adore doing creative things with different kinds of art. Love all colors.
My collections include Buddhas, teapots, vintage sewing baskets/notions, tatting shuttles, Old thread crochet patterns, Irish crochet motifs, and cross stitch patterns and DMC embroidery floss..
I love to play board games, cards games, jig-saw puzzles and, Marble games (looking for wooden marble game board).
It's rare for me to eat with forks I almost always eat with chop sticks and I collect all kinds.
I love to swap Dotee Dolls, ATC's, jewelry and thrift store items the most. Usually the faster the swap is, the better it works for me.
I will rate you on the swap. If the item is mailed on time and is accurate to the swap description you get an automatic 5 from me.
If you looked at my profile and chose or made something based on my likes then the hearts come out. I love to give hearts!
On the other hand please contact me if a problem arises on your end. Things happen and I understand.
If by chance you don't get a swap item from me please contact me and I will make it right.
I love any and all books on needlework, embroidery stitches, crazy quilting, knitting, crochet, cross stitch to name a few.
"How-to" anything. Nothing like learning something new.
Anything written by Dean Koontz is perfect.
I'm a movie junkie. Love them all. I tend to like the quirky off the wall movies. Beautiful costumes just grab me too.
My taste sways from Gone With the Wind to Rocky Horror Picture Show. So, anything goes with me, I just love movies.
My Cat from Hell, The Voice, American Idol, all the forensic based shows, and anything to do with dance.
I LOVE crafts. I've tried them all and I'm not done yet.
My favorites change all the time. Today I love to make Dotee Dolls and ATCs.
I also make jewelry. Bead knitted amulet bags. I enjoy cross stitch, tatting and embroidery too. I LOVE to knit, especially socks. Punch embroidery is becoming a favorite of mine. Crazy quilting is awesome too. Romanian Point Lace and bobbin lace making are being learned at the moment.
Always on the lookout for thread crochet motif patterns/supplies, Irish Crochet is my favorite style of crochet. Drawing or painting and mixed media art. Bobbin lace making too.
I never met a craft I didn't like. I don't need a craft room I need a craft house.
Can't wear yellow or orange it makes me look ill.
I look the best in all of the deep jewel tones. Metal color is silver.
Most of the time I wear a long multi-color "hippy" skirt (with the tiers) with a solid color long or 3/4 sleeved Tee shirt. Or yoga pants with the Tee shirts and my favorite Vera Bradley bags.
I love to throw on a sweater. Cardigans work best, plain and sensible. Wool or wool blends and cotton are my favorite fibers for sweaters. Any size works up to XL
I enjoy having lots of jewelry choices especially bangle, stretch or charm style bracelets . Strands of "pearls" bead necklaces in all lengths and colors.
Boots! Love all kinds of boots Uggs, western, fashion (flats or very short heel). Size 6 (US) usually works for me
I'm only 4'11" and wear a small in everything.
Buddhas, DMC embroidery floss, Big Chunky Charm Bracelets, Beads, threads, cross stitch, tea cups, fairies, charms, dragonflies, sewing needle packs, dotee dolls, thread crochet patterns, Angels, coffee, tea, bento boxes, crystals, knitting, crocheting, sweaters, tole painting, Zentangles, thimbles, quilting, Patchouli oil, Nag Champa, candles, miniatures, antiques, long hippy skirts, ATCs, lace, craft magazines, circular knitting needles, drop spindles, tatting shuttles, chopsticks, aprons. knitting stitch markers, Cookie Cutters of all shapes/sizes, jig saw puzzles, Rubik's Cubes, picture frames, vintage Pyrex bowls,... (pretty much everything)
Mostly I love my family.
I love doing primitive art, folk art, watercolor painting, tole painting, mixed media and ATCs.
I love Mexican folk art and painted furniture. Art celebrating Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
I love the "Big Eye" girls that the artists are painting.
I Would LOVE to get ANY art supplies, watercolor paper and paints, rubber stamps, colored pencils, ink pads,....etc. I do a lot of mixed media paintings and ATC's so anything goes!
In case a swapper wishes to send food items as a bonus... Rather than list all the things I no longer can have it's easier and quicker to say no thank you.
I am very limited in what I can enjoy.

SherreeG Hello from sherryg221! I was kidding with another Sherig that we should form a group, I wonder how many of us there are! Oh, and I am married to a Mike too!
Sherree, I still can't get over the beautiful witch dotee that you gave me. I have her on an ornament display stand at the office. I just can't get over how cute she is. I'm really enjoying her. Thanks a million.
Thanks for the postcard! I can't believe I won the poker game ... I never win in real life ... LOL :)
