Welcome! I am also from St. Paul (New Brighton). I used to sew kids' clothes, but now they are all out of the house. I have 2 grandsons, but they have more clothes than they need already. I also knit, crochet and quilt. I am switching off among the three to finish Christmas gifts also. I am loving the cold weather. I spent all day yesterday in my sewing room working on a baby quilt. Much nicer than being outside in the cold.
