I was a floral designer for local florists. I came home from work one day and husband said.."I have an idea" I thought uh oh...! "You are going to open your own shop!" So..I gave notice and in two weeks I opened my own flower shop. I started on a shoe string budget..and thrived for 15 years. Our daughter got married..and she and I did all of the work for it. My DH helped us. On the way home after the wedding he said, " I have an idea...another UH OH!" "I think you should close the shop and stay home and quilt. I didn't realize how hard this job is" I just turned my head and said "OKAY"
I loved being a floral designer. I have been retired for 5 years. I have been quilting for 28 years and love every single moment of it.
I am also a soldier fighting a battle with cancer.
Peace and Blessings,
