:thumbup: Hello everyone! Today is my birthday & thought I would treat myself & join the quilting forum! I have been quilting since I was a young girl (about 6 or 7) but in earnst for about 25 years or so. It's my escape & relaxation in my hectic life! I'm supposed to be semi-retired but now find myself raising a grandchild who is an absolute doll! She is just 3 & all ready interested in sewing & qulting. I look forward to teaching her all I know & learning more alongside of her!
I am also looking forward to learning lots of interesting things from all of you!
A little about me away from quilting... I'm a professional pastry chef, chocolatier & hot line chef & LOVE cooking & baking! Where am I going for my birthday dinner? Pizza Hut! :-D

God Bless & Merry Christmas everyone!

Welcome from NE CA. Glad to have you on board. You can come and cook for me anytime.LOL I hate to cook. Kudos to you for raising your granddaughter, we're also raising ours, since 2000, she's now almost 16. Feel free to post lots of pictures.

Thank you! Emma is a little doll. She's all excited because we are heading out to see Santa in a few minutes. Then to Pizza Hut lol. Doesn't sound like much but we are a 2 hour drive fom town to go there so it's a treat for us!
