I get so blessed by giving to other people that I forget about me, and the depression leaves.
When I can figure out where my pictures are, I will try to post them on here for you to see.

Deb your story is a great one...I started quilting to fight depression when I became disabled at age 40...amazing how quilting helps to melt away the blues...my QB board name is really hard to figure out I'm sure....LOL....its my real name

So...everyone calls me "The Teddy Bear Lady" :D
My real name is Debbie.
