I was excited to receive my SS name. She lives quite a distane from me in a state I've never visited, although I've seen it on TV once a year since I was a child. She's a much more experienced quilter than I am, so it's going to be a challenge finding something she might use or want. I think I'm up to the challenge! I started sewing and quilting this year after my coworkers gave me a vintage sewing machine (I think the machine and I may be about the same age, ahem). I feel like I'm doing pretty well. I am pleased by what I make and am pleased, as well, by how much better I can sew now than 10 months ago. I love bright colors and combining colors and coming up with my own designs. Oh -- my moniker here, Likethedog, may confuse some. Yes, I love dogs, but I'm a cat owner ("staff" to four). I called myself Likethedog because I often say that to explain what my last name is. |

I have been giving some thought as to what to include in my box for my SS...I think I want to mix Christmas and everyday items...I'm including a Christmas ornament I made, a _______, also a couple of _____________s, and of course who can be without __________ and _________!!!! Since I've given up on trying to figure out what she might like I'm beginning to have a ton of fun! I hope I don't keep the box for myself...(slapping hands as I type...of course I won't, but I may have to make some things in duplicate). I have a great beginning for my Secret Sis! :) Because of the huge amounts of posts we have to read through everyday, I think I'll stick to posting a bit less from now on.

Hi, wow, I am feeling just a bit out of it this year. Not really too talkative. I don't post a whole lot. But, I do read a lot. I hope my secret Santa is not having any trouble. Truly, I will be happy with whatever you send. I really like suprise's. The only thing I am not crazy about is civil war prints, colors that are not vibrant. I love rich, bright, saturated colors. You can't go wrong with bright. I am a scrappy quilter leaning toward a more modern vibe. I like traditional, but found after I just completed a traditional pattern that I really like modern. So am trying to find a wat to blend modern and traditional. I find I change and evolve each year. I love handmade items. I do not collect a lot. I live in a small home with limited space. So, basically my fabric gets important status to me. I post all over the QB. I am involved in several swaps on the board. I have a full profile and photo albums. I hope you find it easy to get to know me.
My Secret Giftee has posted several times here. Is pretty active on the QB. And I have learned quite a lot about her just through her posts. She just doesn't realize it. Lol, but, thank you for all you little hints. I have been making my list and checking it twice. Yes indeed, she has been a good girl this year. Oops, guess you figured out by now, my giftee is a girl. And that's all I'm saying. |

Shopping, shopping, shopping for favorite color fats and can't do without items. Hope my SS can't do without the same things as me cause she's getting extras.
Hint for the day: Your gas prices are at 3.17. |
Hokey Smokes!!! miss 2 days and have to spend over an hour to catch up on reading...
AHEM!!! DREAMER and Company...Tink has explained to me that she had to chase off a few people that were trying to get into my sewing room...these people must have thought that since I was at a craft show, that my stash would be unguarded. My guard Chihuahua is always on duty!!! and very proud of the GOOD JOB that she did...she is currently sleeping on my/her queen size bed...tuckered out with all the work she had to do... And don't forget...Tink is on a very special diet....so, no bribery. She will tell you that it's ok...she can have it all....but, she FIBS. |
