What did you do before quilting?
I use to have an eBay business & a webstore. I have since stopped the eBay
business but maintain the webstore. I also worked out a lot. I still do all the other stuff I use to do. -- Terbear~Curator of the HUG Gallery~ http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/HUGS Teri's quilts~ http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/Tquilts "Betsy Ross" wrote in message nk.net...

I had 3 sons.... at home... enuf said! When they were little (before I became a full time
chauffer) I did a lot of counted cross-stitch and I still enjoy reading.... started quilting in 1999 (DS #2 graduated High School in May of 2000. With just one left at home... and he a special needs kiddo (so not a lot of after school activities, etc...) I have more time to sew. I also spend WAY too much time on this little silver box in my lap --the one I'm using this very second... to read all the posts about those of you that spend much of your time sewing!

What did you do before quilting?
Since I started when I was 5, its kinda hard to remember. I have tried all
kinds of other needlework and had continued it until my hands gave out. Now I can't even sew on a button but I sure can run teh SM on my good days : ) Unfortunately I gave almost ALL my work away so i ahve very itle to show for it...cept a few pixs. I do have a piece of: counted cross stitich, crewel, embroidery, a few afghans both knit and crochet, filigree crocheted shawl that I have kept. Don't ahve any sweaters left--and a lot of them were stolen on our one move--my sweaters, kids sweaters, afghans and almost finished counted crossstitch piece. (yes. they did catch and prosecute the theives. They had a real ring set up--we never did get anything back tho) Butterfly (I still have the beaded crocheted Barbie Doll dress with train that I did for DD) "AliceW" wrote in message ...

Needlepoint, cross-stitch, macrame, embroidery. Then I was volunteered
by my sisters to head up an anniversary quilt we planned to make for our folks' 45th wedding anniversary. that was in '88 and I haven't stopped since. Still do some crossstitch, and have learned simple crochet. Ginger in CA |
