My little 9 lb. man, Ollie. He will be 9 years old in October. He loves to be the neighborhood watch, sun bathe, watch cartoons, and sometimes play with his sister, Newt. Most of the time, he just likes to chill and have his belly rubbed.

I love to sew and embroider. I first learned when I was five years old by doing everything by hand. Today, I prefer using sewing and embroidery machines because I can make more items. This Halloween quilt, I made, was featured by a local quilt shop in 2020.
