Am I the only rubber stamp card maker on here? I love scrap booking, reading, photography, and naturally, quilting! I have also been doing a lot with genealogy, too. Recently found out I am related to 22 people on the Mayflower! What a feeling!

Reading has been my 1st love since grade school.Quilting sometimes takes over,but there's always more books to read.
Used to crochet & do cross stitch,but no time for it now.I work Sudoku puzzles,bake,try new recipes.We always liked to travel.

I enjoy scrapbooking, making cards, shopping for the perfect purse, golf and vacations. Spending time with the grandchildren is a priority.

I am learning to play the Autoharp with the help of a lot of wonderful other 'Harpers" I like doing genealogy and reading. Just got the new Carolyn Hart book.

I have been making twined rugs out of scrap clothing, bedding, unloved fabric etc. Quilting (of course) from idea all the way to labeling and binding, especially scrap quilts. I do a bit of crochet and knitting, love to read, organizing 'stuff', gardening. I really like to make something out of nothing, so recycling the old clothing into rugs is great for me. I work out and walk at least 5 days a week. I spend too much time on a computer.... Apparently I like to collect recipes - I just found a huge box of saved recipes - and I am not sure why, I really don't like to cook LOL

I play in a handbell choir.

I garden, flowers and veggies. Going along with my vegetable garden I can pickles and relishes and freeze lots of other vegetables.

We go camping often and going along with our camping we love to hike and kayak. I also love to find and identify all kinds of wild flowers, birds, animals, trees, mushrooms, etc.

I also enjoy reading and cooking and we very seldom go out to eat.

I also take care of our almost-two-year old granddaughter 2 or 3 days a week. What a joy that is! I am looking forward to teaching her to quilt and sew when she is a bit older.

There is SO much to do and enjoy in life that I truly can not understand how anyone can possibly ever be bored! I enjoy everything I do!
