I am a step-gramma to a precious 16 month old boy, Paxton. He will become a big brother to our granddaughter in February.

I have 1 granddaughter, 4 months old, and I still have 3 children at home. My daughter is attending a local college, and I homeschool my boys ages 15 and 12. I don't get as much time as I would like, but I try to fit in a small portion of time each day. I am currently learning handpiecing.

that doesn't add up: try 12 boys, 5 girls. The oldest , my gs is living with us.

I have three of my own, with one more due in January. My new husband has 5, so together we will have 9 in a couple months! They are wonderful!

I have two granddaughters, two step-granddaughters, and one grandbaby on the way. Gender is TBD.

Having my granddaughters is the main reason that I started sewing and quilting again. What I make for my grandchildren will almost certainly outlive me, and be a lifelong reminder to my grandchildren of their grandmother who loved them enough to make a quilt for them.
