Working Mother of 5 - Kids are grown - 8 Grandchildren . Near retirement!! Crafts: Quilting - Garment Sewing - Knitting - Crochet - Embroidery - I got interesting in yarn work in 4th grade - watching my Grandmother crochet. Knit and Crochet throught the 70's. We all taught ourselves back then - the little HOW TO books. Started embroidery fairly young - little squares - Cross Stitch - Puppy and Kitten prints. Pastel colors - still have them - should use them in a quilt top someday. Garment sewing - watched my Mom make our clothes all my life. I started sewing 8th grade gathered skirt and a blouse with buttons down the front. (Home Economics Class) I made my first dress when I was 18, Never though I would be a quilter - you know - cutting big prices of fabric to little pieces of fabric and sewing them back together to make a BIG piece. In 2000 got hooked - never looked back.
