Right now I consider myself to be a "Practice" Quilter. I began actively quilting last year, but haven't done many projects yet, so I still have a lot to learn!

I have 3 children (a daughter and two sons), all married.

I have also been blessed with 5 grandchildren. One of them soars in Heaven, and I also have a 6th that was an early pregnancy loss.

HOPE has been my source of strength since the loss of my grandson in 2005.

STITCHES are a way to reclaim joy, after much grieving.
