I read so much on here and look at so many avatars I often wonder why folks chose the one they have. I see pix of kids and grands, husbands, couples, quilts and some really funny ones. I am just curious what made you pick that one, is that your best pic of the kids and you? Is that your most challenging quilt? Do you just love the colors?
Just curious.

I guess I should answer first. I did the SpongeBob years ago as a nod to my son who was huge into SB a while ago. I kept it because he sort of represents things that are just fun and he is loving to everyone, of course he is also a blooming idiot sometimes and I can relate to that too.

Mine are of my dogs. It is the best one of both of them. They normally don't sit still and my oldest dog seems to know when to turn his head as I am taking a pic.

I started out using a sunflower because of my board name. I changed to the penguin quilt I just finished for my grandsons birthday. No real reason to change. Will probably go back to the sunflower. I like it best and it goes with my name.

It is the first picture of me that I have liked in a looooong time. I am starting to embrace my inner diva and the voluptuous goddess that the diva is attached to. lol

I love this pic of Moppet "day dreaming" and looking like the cutie that she is.

I'm a big Hello Kitty fanatic (have been since I was a kid-I was raised in Japan/Okinawa) and I LOVE my little Janome Hello Kitty sewing machine so I used that for my avatar (I used to have that picture in my blog header). I only use this machine for paper crafts like cards and scrapbook papers but I also love how cute it is. :mrgreen: The background is actually the backing of a wall hanging I made.
