Hi, I'm Laura!  I am excited to be joining Kristin in her blogging.  I have been blogging for just over three years now.  I started with my personal blog and then started a blog about my running (which hasn't gone so well, but I keep trying).  I have been sewing since I was five years old.  I was taught by mother, who was a wonderful seamstress.  She was taught by her mother, also a beautiful seamstress.  I managed to sew often as a teen.  I had Friday night sewing with my friend Laura (who worked at the same fabric store as I did in a different location oddly enough).  I only made clothing for myself at the time.  Now I sew mostly for others.  I love sewing clothes for my children.  I make a lot of bags and give them as gifts.  I love Amy Butler fabrics and patterns, as well as Heather Bailey and Sandi Henderson and many others. 

We just moved to a new state and are still getting settled.  I should have some projects for the home in the near future.  I look forward to sharing my projects with you!
