It's me!

Yep...It's me!  I am not the kind of girl that seeks out a camera... in fact I like to avoid it like the plague.  My daughter convinced me that I need to show myself on my blog....so she is right...as usual.  Here I am being silly....I like to be silly!

I love my hoop art...I am making some for Halloween!

I like a good party hat, don't you.....this one says....Happy girls are the prettiest!

My mouse pin cushions....one of my best selling patterns!  It was only 97 degrees out when taking our pics...yikes!  My daughter said...yep...I'm hot now..I think we have enough pics.

As I get older..I am starting to finally look like my mom....which is strange since I look totally like my dad's side.....Scottish!  Mom was Scottish too though.  I am rambling! 

Have a cool evening!!

Happy Mother's day to all!

This is me and my mom....wish I didn't look so grumpy!

She was beautiful!

She was so talented: a great cook, a great sewer, she could talk about anything and could convince you it was true, she took care of us five children even when the chips were down, she was always laughing, everyone loved to be around her, she was a great secretary, she love animals, she played the piano like no one I knew.  She never hugged, but you knew you were loved.  She would have died for us.

 Sadly she passed away 12 years ago....smoking destroyed her lungs.  I miss her alot, my daughter was only 20 days old....I believe my mom used sheer will to make it and see my only child.  If your mom is still with you....give her a hug...you never know when you can never hug again.

In the old days....

This picture is me by the way....when I was 2 or 3....mastering the tricycle. (1970) Look at the old TV in the background. That is before our house was on fire.....nothing worse than your toys and paper dolls getting ruined! We were all shopping at a store called valuemart....we were all safe and our dog and cats got out safely too! Our dog broke through the window and the cats probably followed.
