    Hi Katy
    The cat in the picture is Storm. She's my little angel. And yes it is strange how cats creep into our lives. But they make life very interesting. I don't want to even think of not having my 5 babies here.

    My baby is due November 3rd. I can't wait. I keep telling my husband we are going to have the baby on Halloween though LOL.

    I'm from Prince Edward Island, Canada. A very beautiful place. Have you ever been here?

    You can see more of my art here at my Deviant Art page. hugsy25.deviantart.com/
    I have an art page of my own but I'm in the process of reworking it.

    Pastels are by far my favorite. I really want to learn some new techniques though. I've been away from them so long.

    I'd love to see some of your art as well. I'm always interested in seeing others work. I just love art so much. I wish there were more galleries in my area but we are a very small community.

    It's very nice talking to you.

    Hi, Kathy! Welcome to mycraftivity. I hope you find lots of inspiration here! Thank you for your compliments on my quilts. It's been so hot here in Cincinnati that I haven't gotten to work on them much lately, but I'm looking forward to getting back to it on those cool autumn nights. I hope you can find pictures of you batik quilt--I love batiks and I'd love to see your work. Happy Quilting!

    Hi Katy;

    What is the avatar? I do my beading at home and try to sell it to others here in Dolan Springs, AZ. I have been beading with size 11/0 beads for a long time. I have just joined Craftivity too. Would like to learn more things too. I love all crafts. Right now I am trying to learn how to use a new Seger machine I just bought. It is giving me a lot of trouble.
