Hi,
My name is Jane and I live in Petaluma, CA and wish that I lived on a farm. But I don't, so the best thing is to appreciate what I do have and enjoy, and I do.
I'm a mom to 4 kids and a granny to 3 grandsons. Only animals are birds and fish due to the rental agreement. But I would love to raise sheep and chickens.
I love to bake, garden and to make things. Sewing, embroidery, knitting and mosaics are my top four.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone here and sharing.
Take care,
Jane

Welcome Jane! I'm new here too. I hope you enjoy your time here.
I went and visited your blog....the work you do is beautiful!!! The mosaics are really nice...I especially liked the rooster. And the ladybug pincushion is so cute.

Hi Jane,
I'm Kate. I'm also new here. Been reading a lot today! This is a great site. I see you like chickens and sheep! I have chickens. But no sheep yet. I so much want them. Aren't they beautiful? I've always wanted to learn to spin... Nice to meet you! Kate~

Hi, my name is Angie. I am from Western NY, via England. This is my first time in a forum! I hope I do not break any 'rules'! Please keep me in line!
I love to knit, sew, read & garden and look forward to connecting with all you great ladies!! I do not know where to begin! Maybe one of these days I will figure out how to use one of those cute fces that I see! Big step for me!
