Hi,

I am 35 and a single mom with 4 kids, 3 boys aged 12, 11, 10 and little girl
who is 4. You can find them all on my webshots album. I am about to
graduate from university in BSW (bachelor os Social Work) with my focus on
community mental health, working with people who have severe and persistant
mental illnesses. Its an awsome place to be working Only 10 weeks left
till grad I started quilting when my daughter was born, as her
grandma is a sewing marvel. But wayyy back when I was 17 I lived with my
aunts in California, and they took me to a huge quilt show and I was hooked
at that very point I think. I love everything about quilting, the fabric,
the notions, the patterns, cutting sewing well ok fine I hate to sandwhich
and baste lol. I joined in a few swaps hosted here, and a few hugs, and
have grown to love this group very much, though I am often quite busy and
dont post as often as i could.... I forgot to mention that little videogame
habit of mine as well lol. I need to make me a video game quilt lol. My
first quilt was a Legend of Zelda quilt for my son Hmmm what else about
me... I live in BC Canada now, and we have quite few nice quilt shops, but I
hate to admit it, it is cheaper to buy from US online shops and ship it here
than buy local Though nothing beats a good LQS for insipiration!!! Oh
and sadly we arent allowed to have QI where I live So I have fish...
they dont much care for my quilts though lol

Carissa
