3 things in my handbag right now: I don't have a handbag, but 3 things on my desk are a bottle of water, a telescope and a pile of crochet hooks.
The superpower I would love to have: The power to unclutter!  
I get inspired by: Nature 
If you could live anywhere you wanted (money's no object), where would it be? New Zealand, Australia.  Maybe Bora Bora.  Someplace I haven't been yet.
What I’m reading: Far and Away; A Prize Everytime by Neil Peart  
Where do you see yourself/business in 5 years? I'd like to be doing what I am now, custom and unique work that's an art, not a job.
Favorite Reality TV Show: Deadliest Catch 
If you were forced to only have 1 make-up item, what would it be and why? I don't use makeup, so I'll go with lip balm.
What's your favorite item you've ever made? The baby blankets I made for my kids.
 
Thanks Sheila! 
I feel like we know you just a little better now! :)
