Hi there! There are many in my family who have and are serving in the armed forces. Some are home, and some have come home. I spent a lot of time growing up in Miss. with my granny. She lived in McCall Creek and then in Smithdale just outside of McComb. So many memories, all of them wonderful. Seems like at one time or another all my quilts end up as lap quilts. I hand quilt a lot of them...and they were some of my first originals. Welcome!
