I grew up on a farm in central MN; graduated from college with a teaching degree in elementary education and a minor in a special Ed category; married in 1973; widowed in 2010; taught 34 years; mother of 2 sons and I have 1 DIL; volunteer in church and with the church quilting group and volunteer with Bundles of Love Charity. During the school year, you will often find me in a classroom as a substitute teacher. I host middle-schoolers 4 or 5 mornings during the summer at Bundles of Love.
I started sewing when I was young; met my husband through his sister in 4-H; am mostly piecer of tops and choosing to donate them to be finished. I use scraps from the above groups and make scrappy blocks.
I am proud of my family from sons, DIL, siblings, in-laws through great nieces/great nephews. Shining family moment: Nephew Mike and his gold and silver Paralympic medals.
Blessed!
