when you wish upon a star

i just joined a swapblog and this is the wish list for them.

Are you a knitter or crocheter?? both, not really great at either. crochet seems somewhat confusing, but i enjoy both.

I love to make..... baby stuff, holiday stuff, household stuff, just stuff in general

I really want to make...... socks, i need to practice more, purses, and those cute little japanese animals.

My favorite yarns are..... cotton, wool makes me itch. i really like vanna's new yarn

My wish pattern is...... for a beautiful baby afghan or easy sock pattern

My favorite hooks or needles are..... my grannies, i got them when she passed away. the real reason i am teaching my self to knit and crochet. the only ones i've used are the metal ones that she had.

I really wish I had.....more time to craft and someone to help me with some of my questions

My favorite colors are...yellow, purple, blue, green, red, garnet, i like almost anything.

My hobbies...cook/bake, read, sew, knit, crochet, embroider, cross stitch, garden and tatting

My kitchen theme and colors..currently sage green and country themed

My bathroom theme and colors...one is red, white and black with betty boop theme (or at least it will be), the other is blue and yellow sailboats/beach themed

My dislikes....humidity

My crafts..what I like....candles, beading, stickers, stationary, cool socks, pens, any thing mary engelbreit, soaps

My allergies...none that i know of

My favorite pets...dogs, we have a yellow lab, we also have 3 chickens. i adore finches

My favorite scents...lavender, clean smells, citrus, i don't care for most fake food smells, other than cinnamon. you know fake vanilla smell in candles, eww.

My favorite novels or magazines...i could no more pick a favorite book than a favorite child. i read anything other than romance novels. i love a good mystery or a good suspense. i just love to read. magazines that i adore: Tea Time by southern lady, Hallmark, Victoria, Taste of Home, all of the sewing, knitting, beading type mags that you can pick up.

Other stuff about me...i love coffee and tea. i love mythical/fantasy creatures, you know mermaids, unicorns, fairies, elves. i adore reindeer. i love to learn new things. i'm pretty easy going and i like most anything that isn't tacky.

Hey there lady, greetings from a soggy UK. As we are swap buddies courtesy of Periwinkle - what kind of magazine would you like? What are you interested in - would you rather have the Christmas edition of a magazine, or what is new now?
Give me some ideas!
