Hello from northern lower Michigan... north of Traverse City, south of the Mac bridge...
I'm fair (blonde), Fifties (53 in a couple of weeks) and Featherbrained (this goes with the 50s I guess).
I LOVE to quilt, sew, read and garden. Im a retired home designer and have just started pattern designing.

I've been a quilter since the 80's but it's just in the past few years that it has become a passion. I have two daughters, both grown, one in college, one is an art teacher.

Right now Im working on a challenge quilt for the local quilt store. We were given 4 fabrics and told to use at least some of them along with whatever else we wanted. Finished quilt needs to be 24" square and finished by June 30th. I'm still drawing it up BUT I plan to have it finished in time, even if I have to sew all night from now till the 30th!
I have a pile of UFOs that are sitting in a pile awaiting time at the machine... hopefully I will get back to them :roll:
