My childhood was pretty spartan, and we moved and travelled constantly..not only homes but countries. When I was small I would dream of just staying put and hanging on to my possessions...Well didn't achieve that 'til I was just over 30, I then vowed vagabonding was out of my life. I have stayed put for well over a decade, am passionate about my garden, books and animals, enthralled by fabric and quilting. I think the thing with quilting is the fun of hunting and gathering and the quiet time spent designing and creating. The end result is not only beautiful but warm and somehow homely.
One thing I can't seem to achieve though is "the look" (whatever that means). When people who know me find out my interests they always say...."but you don't LOOK like a quilter/gardener". Just wondering if anyone else experiences that?
