About Me

I'm Helen, known mostly online as Chi. I'm a fashion student and I love sewing and designing! My fiancee is my biggest inspiration and my muse and he is so encouraging :) My favourite colours are red, black and teal/turquoise. I love animals! I have had hukies all my life and I have a black cat too :) I would say I was a bit gothic (although others might disagree)

Favorite Books

I adore Terry Pratchett! So much so that he's almost the only author I read now (I have my Mam to thank for that). My favourite characters are the witches, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg.

Favorite Movies

Anything by Tim Burton pretty much but my favourites are Sweeny Todd and Sleepy Hollow. I also love The Crow and Pirates of the Caribbean:the Curse of the Black Pearl

Favorite Crafts

I love sewing! Clothes, bags, plushies....anything. I really enjoy working with polymer clay too, especially making tiny desserts for charms, unfortunately I always want to keep them. I'd like to think I'd have a go at anything :)

Favorite Music

I like a lot of Heavy Metal and Rock stuff. Bands like InMe, Iron Maiden, Within Temptation, Evanesence, Crucified Barbara, Seether, The Rasmus, Thin Lizzy, My Chemical Romance, Dragonforce

Likes

animals- black cats- magic- red- black- stripy stuff!- huskies and wolves- standing out- listening to music really loud- skulls (and crossbones too, naturally)- sunday lunches- pirates!- pixies- spiderwebs- purple- anime/manga- all things kawaii

Dislikes

obnoxious people- double standards- politics- creepy crawlies- baby pink- reality TV

Things I Would Like to Receive

Anything really so long as it's thoughtful :) handmade things will always go down well too

Things I Would Like to Send to

Things that I've made myself....things like polymer clay jewellery (bracelets, ear rings, necklaces), plushies, stuffies, fabric and other odds and ends or whatever the swap calls for! I'm happy to be creative with it

Allergies

None!!

You are being removed from Fabric Art Divas, I don't think I need to tell you why. Please contact me if you ever intend on sending out the swap that you owe me. I not only spent a lot of mailing on shipping my package to you, I sent you way more than what was called for. Then you totally flaked on me.

I just had the swap I sent for the Magazine Clippings returned. As I sent it Certified Mail I have the dates that they tried to delivered it to her - Jan 3, Jan 6 & Jan 17th. It has "unclaimed" stamped accross the front of it twice. I have verified the address and it is the correct one. Personally I don't feel it is my job to resend this swap. It has already cost my $5.91 to mail it to the address provided. I am happy to send you and my swap partner -Char E. Wells ( Char ) a photo of the package to confirm this. I will be waiting to hear back from you both

I just wanted to say I really enjoyed your Cute and Creative Pincushions swap. (I haven't received mine yet, although that's not why I'm posting this comment. :-) ) It was a great idea and I love making pincushions. Hugs, Jen
