Was a college dropout, then married the great guy I dated in high school. Was a stay at home mom for our three children. My husband put me through college and took over child rearing when I went back to college at 33. Have been teaching for 18 years now and beginning to think about retiring when I think I will be able to afford my addiction to quilting. Now that my children are married and beginning to have grandchildren, I will want to make quilts for each of them.
