Introduction I am a farmer's wife and a mother of two fab grown daughters. Recently, I became Huck's grandma. I love this new part of my life.
Interests It seems like I've always known how to sew. I started sewing when I was about 7, making clothes for my dolls and curtains and pillows for their shoebox houses. I enjoy hand and machine embroidery, and crocheting. Knitting is still a mystery. I am a member of a local quilt guild for 6 years, Ozark Piecemakers. I have started my collection of unfinished quilt tops and projects. I've tried my hand at pottery, which I immediately fell in love with. I hope to get back to that soon. I'm very interested in trying fabric dyeing and painting.
Favorite Movies My favorite movie of all time is The Rainmaker with Katherine Hepburn and Burt Lancaster.
Favorite Music Country, blues, oldies
Favorite Books My most favorite book is The Friendly Persuasion and it's sequel Except for Me and Thee. I also enjoy the James Herriot series. I don't read much (a vision thing?), but like hands-on activities.
