Location waynesboro, Va, United States
Introduction I am happily married to Christopher, an Executive Director of a community development corporation for almost 35 years. We have three children ranging from 34-19. We also have four grandchildren ranging from ages 1-8 and love living near two of them and our daughter's family. I have homeschooled our children for 26 years and am still at it. Our 19 yo son is still going and is on a special program for special needs children that we work on everyday. I love to read and paint a Penn/German artform called fraktur and my husband makes the antique like frames to display my work.I love to sew but am just getting started again with a new machine. I teach Sunday School to 3 year olds with my daughter and help her teach sewing in a local school co-op program once a week.
Interests I am a fraktur artist and paint with watercolors. I am a calligrapher and also love finger paints :-). I love to read mysteries and Christian fiction and studies. I just got a new sewing machine and am anxious to get back to sewing quilts. Right now I am working on dolly clothes for my 45 year old Polly Dolly for my granddaughter Heather.
