Introduction

After reading about trolls and other scary creatures, I realized that I
hadn't introduced myself to the group so perhaps, someone was thinking I was
a troll or other nefarious creature.

Alas, I am a mere human. I've been in the group over the years just off for
a couple of years.........

My name is Lenore Lawrence, 54 y.o. and I live in Lakewood, Washington.
I've been quilting "forever" (grew up under the quilt frame with my
grandmother's, auntie's and mother's quilts). I've been into "modern"
quilting for about 20 years.

I'm married and we're doing geriatric parenting: Kids are 20, 17 and 11.
All boys. It is good to have the last one going into adolescence. We'll be
done!

We have a big house but it is poorly organized. I have a lair but it has
never been set up as a sewing room. We're getting ready to move our
youngest downstairs (we have a daylight basement) where the big boys are.
It will be their lair. And, I get his old bedroom. I'm so excited. I've
graphed by new sewing studio all and and have designed what I want.

I make mostly big ol' bedquilts. I think they are like arms reaching
around someone to hug and comfor them. I'm waiting for a king-size French
Braid (for DB and DSIL) to come back from quilting now. And, I'm making a
gorgeous batik for my newphew and wife. He is fresh back from Iraq. My
niece is expecting her first baby after the first of the year and I've got
to make a quilt for baby too.

So, when you see my name, you'll know that I'm not a troll or degenerate
crawling newsgroups to try and pick up victims! Really, if we could figure
out some smooth dance/martial art moves with rotary cutters, no one would
ever mess with us!

Happy quilting,

Lenore

Good to read all the info. Lenore. I remembered you without a problem,
but it was fun to read updates.

Welcome to the cyberframe, Lenore!
Hate to disillusion you, but you're never "done" raising kids - especially
going into adolescence! (Big grin here! - I'm Mom to 6 kids (ages 25-48) and
ya never stop worrying -- or storing their "stuff" in the
attic/basement/barn! )

LOL you got that right Judy, You never stop worrying about them and
then along comes the DGKs and even more worries.

Lenore, I am GrammyKathy and fairly new to the group. I don't post
much but do a lot of reading. Hope to get to know you and the others
much better and I promise I will try and talk more.
