Hi. I'm new with message boards and really don't know what I'm doing, but this looks like fun. I live in north central Iowa and winter is marching in. Cold weather puts me in the mood to quilt so I have one set up in the living room. I have two daughters and 2 amazing grandsons (3 years old and 6years old) and they are so ready for Christmas. I just retired from teaching this year and am enjoying renewing old friendships. Family and friends are so important! I really look forward to meeting people on this message board and hearing about all your projects.

Good morning Cyn. Your picture looks so typical. It's funny how cats love quilts as much as we do
