Hello everyone! I'm from Jackson, MI. I've been sewing since I was in elementary school and started quilting about 5 years ago. I've made one queen size quilt but mostly do lap quilts, baby quilts and table runners. I've been married 36 years. We have 7 children - 2 still at home, 6 grandchildren, a basset hound and a mini dachshund. I work for the local school district as an Instructional Aide. I love having summer vacation, spring and Xmas breaks to spend time with family and sew. Looking forward to getting know you. This seems like a fun and friendly group. Kathy

Hi Kathy, and welcome to a Fun Place to be. I live right on the MI and WI border, Marinette Wi, where it is might cold and snowy, just like you.

Is the photo your Cavalier?
I am planning to adopt one in the next year, any comments or advice. I have found a very reputable breeder and I have my heart set on a Blenheim girl.
