I am a newbie from Ohio I have been quilting since I was 14. I also paint and crochet and bits of many other crafts. I am unemployed for almost year and half. I have decided to give up looking for a job its never going to happen. I used to do craft shows and make a ton of cash to help support us now I think I might go back to that and see how things are happening. I am 55 years old enjoying married life of 35 years and have two boys.
