I love to piece and come up with my own designs, I do have a long arm and quilt my own quilts, just do freehand here no computer for the long arm.
My husband and I will be married for 20 years on Febr. 29, (hurrah I have an anniversary this year) I have 2 sons and he has 2 sons and 1 daughter. We have 11 grand children and 2 great granddaughters. I more grand child is on the way, due in July.
We live in a very small rural town, 110 people, and are about 70 miles from Yellowstone National Park. Beautiful in the summertime and cold and snow in the winter. We may become snowbirds when Bill retires next November, he'll be the magic 65.....I'm already past that at 69.
