Mom, wife, Bubbi,

I like quilting, the color orange, growing tomatoes, buying fabric, giving handmade gifts, laughing with girlfriends, s'mores, canning, making jam, France, traveling, wine tasting, Japanese fabric, roosters, I freak out every time I cut into new fabric.

I love my 8 grandchildren. They make me so happy!

I'm not very good with remembering fabric designers. If I like it I buy it, not because it is a particular designer. I am very influenced by what I see on other's blogs. They are very inspirational.

Please check my favorites on my photostream for more ideas. I am always changing my mind and adding more favorites!

I like bees, hydrangeas, paper piecing. I'm really random
