Default Hi from NE California

Hi! I'm new to this board. I live in extreme NE California with my husband of 12 years and our 2 kids (ages 8 and 5). We live on my husband's 97 year old cattle ranch where we grow orchard grass hay and raise angus cattle. I am a middle school 7th and 8th grade science teacher at our only middle school in the county.

I've been sewing since I was about 8, did 4-H sewing for 9 years, and haven't stopped. I love hand quilting and have completed 5 projects since last summer. I also enjoy crocheting, cooking, and photography. This was my first attempt at machine quilting. I found the pattern on Pinterest.

Hello and welcome from Las Vegas, Nv. This is a wonderful board and all the people here are so helpful and generous with information. I have learned an awful lot in the past year. I'm know you will enjoy the fellowship. Your quilt is lovely.

We're just a little north of Alturas - right up there by Oregon and Nevada.
