Well if you're going to be stuck some where, I guess Florida is an ok place to live. :D We're in Tampa now, but we lived in JAX for 5 years and I used to work at The Olde Green Cupboard (the best fabric store ever).

I homeschool my 15 year old son. My 19 year old daughter is in college 30 minutes away but sews with me every chance she gets. My husband works from home too, so we're always together. It's nice to be together all the time, but when I've had too much, I go hide in my sewing room.

I have two dogs and two cats. One dog and one cat follow me every where and my cat, Mu Mu, knows how to sew. Really! His favorite part is picking out the fabric. :)

My friend Lori in New York sent me here.

It's nice to meet you all.

Take care.

May your bobbin always be full!

That is so cool. We are dying to visit New Zealand. We were just talking about it the other day. My sister has visited and loved it. Her pictures were amazing.

Nice to meet you. Have a blessed day.

:)

Hello and welcome to Florida. We have been in East Orlando for 25 years - still miss the seasons of Wisconsin but have learned to bloom wherever you are. I loved your website store. What a great idea - old books and material for cards! I admire your creativity and artwork.
