About Me

I am into just about into everything crafty. I love knitting (except fun fur I don't think that it should have ever been invented!) and quilting and everything associated with that(I even read knitting mysteries- hehe). I started needle point a little while ago and I like it a lot bot I don't do it very much. I have 2 cats (Arwen and Rogue...can you tell what else I like?) I also love Harry Potter and anything else that requires you to use your imagination. I love all bright colors but green is my fav. I love art, especially the masters VanGogh and Monet. Also I'm Irish and pretty much like anything associated with Ireland. I love candy, esp. Jelly Bellys!! (any fruit flavor esp blueberry) Well I hope that this helps fill you in on me. ;)

Favorite Music

Christian contemp. (Shawn McDonald is my fave), Classical (I used to play the bassoon), oldies, Old old country, and irish folk (I'm Irish), Seventh Star, Life in your way

Favorite Movies

romantic comedies (Sixteen candles!! love love love) Harry Potter series LOTR Chronicles of Narnia (both BBC and American) Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the dead (Man those guys are brilliant) Green Street hooligans Pan's Labyrinth Driving Lessons

Favorite Television

The Office, Midsomer Murders, Rosemary and Tyme mysteries, How I met your mother, Lost, I recently got into The Deadliest Catch (I watched one ep and now I can't miss any)

Comment: Amanda!! Your lovely blue-green socks arrived just before my summer camping trip. I want you to know I wore them at night to keep my feet cozy and I LOVED them. The design and stitching is perfect. Many thanks~~ [I'm so glad I decided to host this swap! I was worried when I started it. Thanks for making it special for me.]

Comment: Wood (and I think you should go by that), My package was amazing. The little knitted Gryffindor student softie is magnificent, Tommy and I love all the goodies (except I'm with your fiancee regarding the vomit all-flavor beans), and Muggle Owl mail was a nice touch. Thank you so much! Heather

Comment: Great ideas! I can't wait to head out for my day of fun. I've heard of every place, but one, but would you believe that we've lived here 7 years and haven't been to even one of the places you mentioned. How exciting! Thanks for doing the research and coming up with some GREAT ideas!

Amanda, last year we were in the Local Newspaper Scavenger Hunt. I sent my paper late, but did eventually send to you and my other partner. You had rightly left a 1 rating at the time, but if you finally did receive it back in October, could you please go back to the swap and update my rating from a 1? I would be so grateful. Thank you! Karla

Amanda, I left you a rating earlier today, but needed to do some more gushing. The knitted HP stuffie is just so clever and wonderful and full of details. You really went over and above the swap requirements and I'm thrilled by it all! Thanks! Heather/winemakerssister

Thank you for the great articles (from the newspaper scavenger hunt). They were all very interesting. I loved the Coke-and-Mentos act. Every time I see it I laugh. :)
