Retired and live in Arizona but originally from Ohio . Love sewing, machine embroidery, and photography. I like creating art quilts and/or wall hangings. I try to digitize my own designs for the machine embroidery but will use other designs on my projects. I also enjoy sewing bags, purses and totes adding my own touch to them with embroidery or other embellishments. When I get a chance I love to walk around taking photos of just about anything that catches my eye but usually ends up being nature - especially close ups.
