Eagar comes from the place I live, Eagar, AZ. When I was younger people would forget my name, which is Brenda. It was uncommon. I said ok, just call me B. I think it was my step son that started calling me Bees. I changed the last letter to z. Hence EagarBeez

Mine is my name. My avatar is a picture I found when I was looking for something to put on a banner when someone was leaving our company. I like the picture. As soon as I get board with it, it will change. Love hearing about other's. It's great!

I totally get this. There are sooooo many id names and numbers to remember with computers I had to go simple.
My name and last initial!

I only get Elizabeth if I'm in trouble with the IRS:):):)

Or maybe mom and dad "Elizabeth Ruth!"

My name is Barbara Jean But many years ago people started calling me BJ. All my Grandchildren share in one thing, all grands are loved and respected and called grandma(last name) or grandpa(last name) this includes in-law grands ex anple: My daughters childern call my sons wifes mother grandma (last name). If there are more than one grand with the same last name then they use first names, My mother-in-law is Grandma(last name)When our first Grand child was born my husband began calling me Granny, I called him Pa(it stuck) the grand kids changed it to Gramie and PaPa So that makes me Grammie BJ

ptquilts stands for our business name we came up with 30 years ago, Pine Tree Quilts (we lived on a property with a lot of pine trees, very original, right?)
although it could stand for part-time quilts as well, as I am not as active as I used to be in quilting.

This is a fun thread.

I had just moved into a new large room in our basement for my quilting, so came up with dungeonquilter. My DS has since moved back home and taken over my room, and I am using two very small bedrooms upstairs. He just moved back temporarily for a few months to get back on his feet (4 years ago).

I just love reading all of your stories. It makes each one of you sort of pop out of cyberspace and into real life. Thank you so much for bringing so many smiles to my face.
