eBay My World: msburris21( 96)

I'm married, 3rd time, have 3 grown children, 10 grandchildren, and I am 53 years old. I have to be busy ALL the time! I love to make things. I put things on eBay to help out with the bills around here. I'm friendly so email me & let's visit awhile!

I sell the few finished quilts and quilt tops that I make. I have collected so much stuff though that my house is FULL! (Well, between my husband and I.) I have started the process of going through everything and see 'IF' I can find some stuff to sell. I say if because I'm not sure I can let it go.

Fabric, fabric, and more fabric.

I have collected different things during the years, but then I'll get tired of it, and collect something new that has caught my eye. I never get rid of the old collections though. Right now, I'm really into quilting, so I have been buying fabric like they're going to quit making it soon! I have over 100 yards, and I'm still buying! So fabric is No. 1. Also books by several authors, including Dean Koontz, James Patterson, Greg Iles, Patricia Cornwell, Nora Roberts, & Mary Higgins Clark to name a few. I also collect Stamps!, Fenton Fairy Lamps, cute little miniatures, knives, turtle shells, Christmas decorations, cigarette lighters, and little metal tins. I also still like my collections that I'm not working on now, which include CD's, Hummingbirds, Wind Chimes, old bottles, Craft Books and numerous other things.

I also like to knit, crochet, macrame, cross-stitch, embroidery, paint ceramic Christmas ornaments, Plastic Canvas, Quilt, do Hooked Rug kits, work on my Stamp Collection, Read. Just about all crafts. I've been thinking about learning Scrapbooking. I like to search the web for information, to check out new things. I like to take pictures with my digital camera of everything I make and create. I like designing my own quilts, drawing them up and then making them. I like my goldfish, and my 3 cats. I like helping people, emailing letters to people, and finding new penpals.
