Hi everyone, I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Ashley and I'm from upper Michigan. I have been sewing for years, but just started quilting. I love making cloth napkins, clothes for myself, housewares, and things for my doggie. I am married with no kids yet (still pretty young). Our dog is an 8 pound toy poodle, Larry. He is so special to us. I have an antique Singer treadle machine from 1905, a New Home electric in a cabinet from the 1930's, and a modern basic Janome. I love using the treadle! I am learning so much from everyone here already!! I am in the chat a lot, so I hope to see you guys there :D
