I am a 49 year old mother of two children, plus mom to two Boston Terrier dogs. I am very active in Boston Terrier Rescue in Canada. I love to quilt and have a longarm machine plus teach partime at a local quilt shop. I have just started scrapbooking, a little, and also enjoy silk ribbon embroidery. My favorite holiday is Christmas - but I love all holidays and love to decorate for them. I also have started making dolls - prim and art dolls. I just love old movies and the vintage clothes and hairdoos you see in them.
My favorite colors are deep dark folk art colors, green, blues, gold, red.
For the Friendship Star quilt block swap I prefer a "scrappy" block.
I love teal and brown, and pink and brown.

Debbie, I'm wondering if the June Holiday quilt block arrived yet? I mailed it in a re-usable envelope, so I hope that didn't create a problem with the Canadian postal service!
