I'm backing out of hosting the "Super Sixteen ATC Swaps" for a while, not sure how long. Gonna pursue one of my other projects - ReBorn dolls. I hope someone else will take over the super 16 swaps as they are always fun and a lot of people like them. So I guess, if you are interested in doing that - GO FOR IT!!

I have two sons (ages 38 and 31) and a step daughter who is 41. Also a BIG dog named Wilson and a cat named Seven.

My husband and I live high on a mountain in Fall Creek, Oregon. I was raised in this same part of Oregon. My husband is from Burlington,Iowa - came out here in his last year of high school. We've been married for 34 years.

I'm in a small, close-knit, Red Hat group. We just came back from the beach house that we rent every Spring. We take other trips too and have overnighters at my house a few times a year.

The best thing is when we sit the huge CHEESECAKE in the middle of the table and and each have our own spoon! We can solve the worlds problems right then and there!

It's been ages since I read a regular book. The last one would have been something written by Ann Rule - She's great!! I have even met her a few times. I do love books and magazines about crafts, mainly altered type crafts.

My favorite magazine is "Cloth, Paper, Scissors". I just can't get enough of that one!! Then next on the list would be "Artitude" and then "Altered Art"

Can't remember the last time I went to a Movie. That would cut into my crafting time way too much!! ;-)

Now, TV is something I can do while I'm working on a project. I love all the craft shows on HGTV. Wish I got DIY !! I'd be in TV heaven!!

I also like ANY and ALL true crime shows. My favorites are the ones like "American Justice" and "Cold Case Files"

My FAVORITE passion is making reborn dolls but that's not really a craft, more of an art.

Well, Now we're talking - CRAFTS !! Being almost 62 and having been into crafts since I was a child, I have dabbled in tons of arts, crafts and tecniques for both. Things that Carol Duvall doesn't even know about! I will try to list later ;-)

Genealogy (family tree research) is and has been my passion for at least 40 years. I just can't get enough of those ancestors. Notice I didn't say "dead people".
