I’m Sandi, and I live in Wisconsin with my mom and three cats. (They’re the only roommates who can tolerate me!)
I’ve been quilting for about five years, but playing with fabric all my life. Mostly just petting it, because I could never get the hang of sewing clothes. Too fussy! Although how cutting it into little bits and sewing it back together is “less fussy,” I don’t know. I also make the occasional bag and toy. I fight my cats for my fabric stash since they think it’s their personal bedding. My style is mostly traditional piecing, although I like the look of modern quilts and will probably try some soon. “Art” quilts (and the quotations are simply because I think all quilting is art) are gorgeous, and I greatly admire those able to make them. At this point, my brain isn’t ready to think that way.
I also enjoy cooking, reading, and hanging out in the garden.

Hello from Janesville
*waves* I’m all excited to see another quilter in the area who keeps a blog.
I, too, have the machine quilting set up you, and three cats to boot! BTW, yours are adorable. I’m a sucker for cats – as my own know.
Hi Sandi! Can you please me email me when you get a chance so I can get some info from you about Pay It Forward.
Thanks!
