Hello. I also am from central Illinois. I agree, there is always something to do, I love quilting, crafts, sewing, my friends are trying to get me into card making. Embrodiery, reading, oh, I have more hobbies than I seem to have time for. I have four grandchilden I would like to sew for. Perhaps, when I retire. Anyway, Welcome to the board! I look forward to hearing from you and seeing yr post.
