Singer Taylor Swift likes to do "cross-stitches" of "ironic" rap lyrics and gift them to her friends.

The 24-year-old singer, who has friends Lorde, Lena Dunham and Karlie Kloss, says that she has learned a lot in the past two years of her life including respect towards friendship, reports femalefirst.co.uk

"I didn't realise that being in love with your life can be just as wonderful as being in love with another person. Every relationship takes work and effort, and when I put that work and effort into my friends, family, and fans ... my life changed completely," the `Love Story` hitmaker told BuzzFeed.

"I started making choices based on what I wanted, and didn't feel like I needed to justify them. At 24 I decided that my life is enough for me, and I stopped looking for some other piece to complete it.

"I also learned how to needlepoint ironic cross-stitches of rap lyrics and gave them to my friends as presents," she added.
