Collecting red, black & white or white & black. Fabrics - CWs and orientals. Like anything with milk chocolate, carmel or nuts. No dark chocolate - it makes my heart race. I luv roosters and sunflowers. I like different teas.

Sign me up please!

I like just about any colors except brights like neons. Really in to lavenders, soft purples, etc. right now plus red, white and blues. I like all candy except sours or gummys. I like flower gardening and have houseplants. Country music (cd copies are fine)I love nautical themes espically Light houses. Coffee drinker. Like to read about anything exept sci-fi.(used paper backs are fine) I guess you can tell I recycle alot of stuff. I just hate to spend so much money for books so I swap alot of them with friends.

Sign me up!! Sounds like fun.

I love jewel tones, black & white fabric, warm-colored batiks and orientals. I've also just started to love light-to-medium pinks when paired with yellows.

I have an allergy to all dairy products so save trouble and time and don't worry about food or candy.

When I travel I like to buy different brands/flavours of Fair Trade teas. Tea is a way that I make time for myself - every day :) I collect postcards b/c they are always more beautiful than a picture I would take and you don't have anyone's head in the shot! LOL

I'm really easy to please and love second-hand stuff as well as I would enjoy something brand new. I read so much I very rarely spend retail price on books. I like contemporary mysteries with a touch of humour, contemporary romances, Science Fiction. I read pretty much everything except things that have you crying the whole time! And I don't like 'true crime' at all.

When I'm not quilting or reading I'm learning to knit and care for a garden.

I'm CRAZY for games and play them all the time with my DH and kids.

I'm looking forward to learning my partner's name :)

Dawne

Hi,
I would love to join the exchange. I guess I am still so new to quilting just about everything appeals to me although I dont really care for black or "modern" looking fabric, I love metallics that blend in with the fabric , orientals, reds, yellows, blues/pinks,holiday fabrics
My favorite thing to drink is water or lemonade.. no teas, no coffees
Also I only have a shower so no bath bubbles etc
I love popcorn ,cheese doritos,peanuts and toffee if I am matched with a Canadian I would love Cheese Ritz crackers!!!
I collect souvenir teaspoons and nativity scenes from around the world. I too love to read.
Just a note to the other readers have you tried Paperbackswap.com I have had a blast using it

OH BOY!!! Another fun swap I can't resist!!!!
Sign me up!!!

favorite colors are blue and yellow.. Least favorite is ORANGE! (have major flash backs to the 70's when my kitchen was orange and avacado green!!)

I'm trying to NOT collect anything, as I know in a couple years I'll have to get rid of stuff to move to a smaller place. So for now, all I collect is fabric LOL. Oh but I am a freak for office supplies: pens;, spiral notebooks--in particular I have a collect of spiral notebooks from different colleges--even 1 in Ireland! I know, silly thing to collect.

Hmmm - this sounds interesting. I love shopping for all those cool little things you put in stockings at Christmas - the pens, notepads, etc. This swap sounds like Christmas is coming early!

I'm fond of blue, yellow, green, and purple. Not so fond of orange, most batiks, or neons. I'm more of an old fashioned calico/floral kind of person.

I like most candy, but am not fond of sour candy or jaw breakers. And I don't drink coffee or tea, but I looooove chocolate.

I collect cute refrigerator magnets, keychains, cows, bunnies, chickens, and snowmen. I love trivia books and general craft books. Like some of the others have said, I don't mind recycled books. I love coming out of the thrift store with 5 or 6 books for $2.50.

I like to collect postcards of places I've been (in case my photos don't turn out), but I think I'd like to start a collection of places I haven't been yet. (Maybe that could be another swap -- like 'Where is Sunbonnet Sue?' or Flat Stanley...)

Hey, Mom, one question... Is this going to be like the Ugly Fabric Swap where we have partners and send to each other, or is this going to be like Secret Pals, where we all send to someone different?
