So although I don't work out of the home believe me I work real hard in the home.

You are so lucky to have a granddaughter- I believe how busy you are and work hard, too, I have been there (home with two little boys)! Neither one of our boys has ever married and are in their thirties now.

I love hand made glass beads! I own a few and want to make something out of them, but as yet have not had the time or proper inspiration.

My vacation is about to start in two minutes- I'll be off work till the 13th of September! Just got home and I got my SBS's in the mail from you! TYTYTY- they are so cute!!!

Crafty you will have help sewing before you know it! My GD is 8 now and has been using my machines as much as possible. Tierra started with hand piecing when she was 5.5 years old. She uses my featherweight, it is a good size for a little one, and asked if she could have it, soooo I gave it to her.

I am going to start helping a lady(90+years young) with her quilting. I think it will be a major learning experience for me too.
