I'm Linda, living in El Paso, Texas, and posting as Mystified One because
I'm so mystified as to why my computer keeps going down. Or at least that's
when I changed it. At first I was Mystical One, but I realized a little
late it had connotations that didn't reflect me, and by then I was known
pretty well as that nick, so when I changed it was very subtle.

I've been married for a year. (one of the two posters in this forum who got
married New Year's Eve, and apparently the same day!) We've got 4 children
ranging in age from 4 to 14 between us, three dogs, two cats, and a
cockroach that rearranges the furniture in the living room.

I've been sewing since I was 12. I learned on my mom's Centennial
Featherweight. I'd die to have that machine back. I now own a Pfaff 7550.

I like to do the quilts that make people stop in their tracks and look.
When I make a quilt, I love the look on people's faces. Usually, I end up
giving them to extended family or charity. I'm still trying to make the
twin quilts for the children. It just seems there's very little time in my
day!
