Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Thimblebug, What a great thing to be able to sew in such a beautiful setting. I have appliquéd before outside and sewed overlooking a lake but not actually outside. Wonderful! Will have to find a pic.
I don't really have picture of ME since I'm always the one with the camera ... you can KIND OF see me in this pic! This is from November last year ... just before we got all our snow!
This would be me in Washington State in the summer of 2014.

This is me with my family taken at church on Mother's Day 2014. I hate having my picture taken and couldn't find any of just me!
Do not worry about the past, for it is history,
Do not worry about the future, for it is a mystery,
Only live for today, for it is a gift, that is why it is called "the present."
I don't like my picture taken either. This is probably the last time I did and it's four years old. I look pretty much the same except I'm 70 now so have a few more wrinkles and have new glasses.
Sew many Quilts.......so little time!
Here I am with a friend
You know that feeling when you've finished all your quilting projects and your studio is perfectly clean???? Me neither.
It's not how fast you sew, it's how well you sew fast! Wait, I think that's supposed to be MOW!
No pictures on this work computer. Doubt I remember when I get home. I don't have any recent pics, hate having my picture taken.

Okay, here I am. This is my professional, work headshot. Just picture me in comfy sweats with threads and fabric scraps stuck to me... that's more like it.

Better to do something imperfectly, than nothing perfectly.
Done is better than perfect.
So many terrific responses. Nice to see all of you. I did not know we had an astronaut in the family. LOL. I hope a lot more will poke their heads around the corner.

Sorry for the poor quality but this is a pic of a pic. LOL This was about 2 yrs ago. I also hate to have my pic taken!
I love this idea but I don't have a decent picture to submit. Maybe after my son's wedding in Sept. :-)
If I did this right . .this is as I read the post this morning!

I love this posting this morning. I love seeing all the pretty faces, even though nearly every one of you said you don't like your picture being taken. I am usually the one behind the camera for my bunch too. I'll post a pic when I can get a grandkid over here to help me. Snow days here in TN, so I guess I won't be seeing any of them today--too many play things for snow activities for them--that's a lot more fun than going to grannie's to help her post a picture.
Make every day count for something!

I love this post. This is so much fun to see real people who enjoy the same as I. Too bad we couldn't have one big fat block party.
That's exactly how I feel some days - upside down! You have a great smile!
A quilt is like a good life. It's full of mistakes, but, in the end, it looks pretty good.
Here's a newer one of me, about 2 years old. Hair is a bit longer, softer now. And more gray.

We COULD! Just pick one of those quilting weekends, and get out the Fritos, and Dr. Pepper.

Boston, I have a feeling you're not pining so much for Massachusetts today--even here in TN, we have enough snow to make me pine for Louisiana, where I can remember only one cold winter all my growing-up life. I never knew a real white Christmas until I grew up, and lived in Alaska when I was 23 or so.

The first picture shows me, my mother, father, and older sister at Christmas 1958 at Grandma's house, about two months before she set me on fire. (Nice scar on my butt from that.)
The second picture is me and my three beautiful nieces Heather, Mikayla, and Phoebe, taken 2012 in summer. My hair is longer now, and I am older, Mikayla has a little boy and Phoebe now has two little girls, one is a newborn (she was PG in picture but did not know it) and Heather now has her degree. I am so proud of them.
I put up both pictures so you could see I was born with crazy hair, and it never grew up. It is still as fine and soft as a baby's. My three sisters all got dad's fabulous thick hair. I got mom's, got her face too!
