| Introduction | I'm an out of work paleontologist living in a nanny state here in the good ol' U.S.of A. My main hobbies are 1)building dollhouses and things to go in them and 2)anything related to fiber art. Fiber art includes but is not limited to: spinning, weaving, crocheting, counted cross stitch, and the like. For the record my knitting leaves much to be desired. I also am a dressmaker. I live in a household with 1 husband, 1 opinionated bunny, 1 dog, and 3 cats. |
