Hi Swappers!

 

So I've been sucked into the lovely world of Flickr-sewing-and-quilting-swaps!! Tons of fun!

 

Here's a little bit about me - I've got three little girls (A was born Nov 2006, E was born Mar 2010, and C was born Oct 2012.) Between my fabulous husband, these three girls are the light of my life.

 

If you have me as a partner in a swap, please rest assured that I am EASY to create for - I love pretty much anything homemade, although I'm pretty modern in my tastes. I love to see what other people do creatively, and while I'm kind of a quiet blogger, I am an avid blog reader! So anything that you do, I know I'm going to be thrilled with.

 

*** IMPORTANT *** I have an obnoxiously severe dust allergy, so I can't have throw pillows around. Anything meant to sit out (like coasters, mug rug, quilt, etc.) needs to be machine washable. I personally don't prewash my fabrics, so don't worry about washing them ahead of time - it's just that if they sit out for a while, I need to be able to machine wash them. Fabric buckets are usually sturdily sewn, so they're washable - just please don't use cardboard to stiffen them. I'm also allergic to cats / dogs, so please no pet hair!

 

Here’s some ideas for you - please don’t feel that you need to get ALL of these into one item – these are just starting points!
