Amazing sometimes to know that words can turn into something bigger than what the poem was meant to become.

Congratulations! What an honor! I see you are a newbie--so hello and welcome from an Iowa girl!

So many busy people, how do we have time for quilts?

I do counted cross stitch, crochet and knit, I also sew clothing and purses although it's been a while. I used to do macrame and ceramics also. I am so jealous of you that can do carpentry. I bought a house that is a true fixer upper and my best friend will be the internet and how to books since most of the work will be done by your truly. I moved out here about 2 weeks ago and have been working at the paying job and then working on the nonpaying job(the house)almost everyday since. I took a little rest this morning to check in here, I will be so glad to be able to spend some time at the sewing machine again.
