    Welcome from East TN! I was fortunate enough to live at Eielson AFB with my hubby. First time away from home, married less than 6 months and pregnant. What a way to greet Alaska! I would do it all over again. We also had another baby so we had our girl and boy in Alaska from the time we spent there in 1968-1970. We enjoyed our time there and I took up sewing my daughters clothes as well as my own on my faithful Nelco. Lots of wonderful memories!

I'm here now and thoroughly enjoying myself, but I'm having trouble focusing on one thing at a time. I want to do machine applique, machine quilting, piecing, landscape quilting, ..... Boy is this fun!!
    greetings from OK...
    My daughter was stationed in Fairbanks...she grew up in Ketchikan and Bethel, so was shocked the AF sent her back to AK. At least in Fairbanks she had a road system..ehhehe

    I miss AK and am seriously thinking it is time to use up some air miles!

    You'll fit in just fine. I think we all have several projects going at once.
