Just for fun
          I have been sewing since I was in grade school.  I made a lot of my own clothes in High School, and LOVED sewing the girly dresses for my daughter when she was young.  Sewing and being creative is a passion, I can't follow a pattern completely, I have to make changes.  I have always loved dolls...I have several of my old barbies in a box waiting for me to customized them, (before I knew what customizing was!!)  And I've purchased some along the way for same.  I have two BABY dolls and a several other dolls in my collection 
       I worked as a waitress in one restaurant  for 15 years along with my mother, until she passed away in Sept 1997.  I retired in 2000 to be at home with my two kids and  work with my husband at home in our own drafting business -Tumbleweed Acres Drafting and Design. I do more designing now, with the customizing of the dolls and my new embroidery machine. . I am hoping to make a living from selling my sewing creations.
I love movies and music...together or alone :-).  I just had to have the sound trak to CHICAGO, and I love the older movie like SHOW BOAT and Seven Brides for 7 Brothers. Also have Phantom of the Opera, several Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers movies and almost all of the Elvis Presley movie set. I just love his moives..
I enjoy photograpy, but haven't really messed with the digital camera much to know what it can do.  My sister-in-law tells me to take pictures of the kids, I have too many of the animals, but she just doesn't know how hard it is to get the kids to let me take their picture!!
   I also love animals, I have 4 dogs and 3 cats...and feed the strays, once inawhile... I feed the birds in the summer, and I even have fish, thanks to my son winning one at the fair a few years ago.

I have always enjoyed dolls.  I discovered the world of OOAK makeovers a few years back.  Using my skills and talents in sewing has made that an adventure that I am still enjoying and expanding on.  I love being creative, and have always made things.  I am now working in other fields of my OOAK creations, as well as make overs, fashions and now furniture.  I am having a blast.
