ONGOING WISH SWAP ROUND FIVE: CLOSED

[yawningyak]

I claim bente & will fulfill this wish:
anything decorated with swallow tattoo, flaming heart, lucky horseshoe, vintage tattoo style designs: tote, tshirt, clutch, zipper pouch, pillow

This is my first wish.  I live in Missouri, USofA.

1.  Crocheted or knitted slippers or thick socks.
2.  Knitted or crocheted hat.
3.  Kitchen apron – anything fun, kitschy.  To fit an XL person. 
4.  Christmas ornaments – the weirder, the better.  I have plenty of “normal” ornaments too but I try to find bizarre, funky, colorful ornaments whenever I can.  Would love to see what I might get from one of you.
5.  Vintage fabric or vintage-look fabric pieces
6.  Anything poodle
7.  A purple knitted Poodle toilet roll cover.  I think my bathroom needs one of those – just for fun. 
8.  Anything Mexican folk art-ish – crosses, dia de los muertos, virgin de guadelupe – kitchen is decorated with all of this.
9.  Something to do with Arrested Development – possibly with the Banana Grabber character, the Bluthe company logo, or a stencil of Buster, George Michael, or G.O.B.   Pouch, make-up bag, tote bag, t-shirt…..whatever.
10.  A panta – preferably black or dark purple 
11.  Crocheted flowers
12.  Anything with a mermaid, for my husband’s bathroom.  Racy = good. 


I am 37, but usually don’t feel it.  I was born with an unnatural lust for the color purple, especially dark purple.  But over the years have come to appreciate most of the other colors (yellow & bright orange are my least favorite).  I’m a jeans & sweatshirt kind of girl, but often desire to dress more feminine.  I love fleece…..if I could wear it head to toe every day I would be happiest.  I have 2 rockin’ poodles.  Likes:  poodles, rubber ducks, amaretto, the scent of lilacs, the great outdoors.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is my first wish in this swap, and I live in Canada.

My wish list...

1.  a Jordy bag (http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=32204.0), of a decent size, something big enough for books, or knitting WIPs, with a strap big enough to put over my shoulder.

2.  i love rickrackruby's necktie bag (http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=45985.0)

3.  one of the awesome roll-up knitting needle cases like this: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=69952.0, doesn't have to be kimono style tho

4.  a "learn to spin" kit (i.e. drop spindle and instructions, I have never done this before but am getting inspired to try by the craftster spinners)

5.  a "learn to needle felt kit" (i.e. needle thingy, roving, instructions - also never done this before!)

6.  fun knitted socks- my feet are 10" long, but narrow.

7.  I like this wire wrapped necklace and earrings! http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=71235.msg675723;topicseen#msg675723

8.  as always... handspun yarn! mmmm.... yarn....

I like jewel tones, colours with blue undertones (i.e. love blue, purple, reds, greens, pink), but not yellow undertones (i.e. don't care for orange, yellow etc.). A little about me... I like canoeing, camping, reading, swimming, knitting... umm... jazz, red wine... er... eating chocolate, lying around on the couch....

Thanks craftsters!
