    I mostly quilt, pillow cases to match, I have an old stash of decorator fabrics form a previous job, ( I was lucky enough ot work for a home builder, in the Model Home Design Department with 6 Designers; I called them the ladies who lunch) I use those for totes, reuseable grocery bags, I'm trying to wean my friends off the plastic... The most fun thing, after quilting; is to sew with my grandson, we make outfits for his stuffed animals, but that won't last long, he's 6 now. So, quilt it is for me!

    I set whatever I'm collecting on the shelf next to my laptop so it can talk to me while I surf for quilty stuff

    In the past I made clothing, lots of clothing, curtains, pillow cases, you name it, I sewed it. Now, however, I pretty much stick to quilting and of corse fabric admiration!

    I love to pet and stare at my pretty fabric stash!! And when I can get the nerve to actually USE my fabric, I make jammies, dresses (for granddaughter), pillows, aprons, curtains, etc.
