Hello ladies!
I'm Sandi, from Boise, ID. Originally a CA native (Ventura), moving here changed my whole life. I always wanted to quilt, as my grandmother and her sisters did, but could never find the time. Now, as a mom of 3 girls...I see it as both a necessity (learning to sew better) and way to be creative. I call myself "formerly" a scrapbooker, but I still scrapbook and stamp, fabric was a natural transition from beautiful patterned papers. Now I want to make great things for my home (besides Halloween costumes!).
I met a wonderful lady in Joann's who recommended this board, which is a great replacement for my BFF's and her mother's brain. :D (They must get tired of me!)
Can't wait to learn from all your experience, and pick YOUR brains! :D

Oh yes, we love it here. Great place to raise a family!
It took me 12 years to get over leaving my hometown....but now, I can't imagine being anywhere else.
Middleton is lovely! If my hubby didn't work in the IT industry and need to be close to town, it would great to live there!

Hello and Welcome from a CA girl who grew up in Nampa, ID! :) Though I moved to CA some 14 years ago (best thing ever!) lol.
I too am a scrapbooker (though I only do it for a "job"), I'd rather play with fabrics all day!
