My name is Karen and I am a quilter, a want-to-be designer and I love to mess with dyeing fabric.  I have four grown children, Allen, Mark, Stacey and Christopher.  My grandchildren are incredibly fantastic (can you believe that?).  I have two girls, Meagan and Madison (Al’s children), RJ and Maria (twins belonging to Mark), as well as three-step grands – Allie, Jayne and Kevin.  Lots and lots of grand dogs and grand cats and of utmost importance, my four gorgeous boxers – Sasha, Champ, Precious and Caitlin and my black, pointy nose rescue dog, Charlie.
