    I am in Wisconsin after having been in Vermont for seven years, Boston for about 15 years before that, and Northern New York State as a child.

    This is the first time I have not had a job outside the home in 30+ years and I have started using my time to quilt. I mostly use people-powered machines and love my treadle!

    I have two teenagers (Aargh!), three cats, one dog and one husband.

    Just curious. Where in Wisconsin are you from?

    Hi Jane,
    I lived in Green Bay for three years with a military husband. I loved the friendly people, the weather (NOT!!!), and all the chances to see the Packers play.

    You've come to an addicting site and I'm glad to meet you!
    Happy Quilting!
    Sharon

    I had to actually look up where Black River Falls is located. I am still not very familiar with Wisconsin geography I am afraid. The fact that we now live in the midwest is still a little strange to us even after 2-1/2 years!

    Oh, I didn't know you haven't lived in the area for a long time so I had assumed you knew Black River Falls was an hour away from Eau Claire. My bad.
