* Hi!  I am Suzette, or swooze in chat.  I live in Mesquite, Texas which is near Dallas.   We have lived here since 1985, when we married.  We have two children, a boy and a girl.  We have lots of fun together and they do keep me busy.  We also are rescue family and have three Australian Shepherds and three Australian Shepherd mixed dogs as a result of those efforts.

I started quilting in 1989, after a trip home to visit my family.  My mother took me to an aunt's house and they had just made an Eleanor Burns Quilt In A Day Log Cabin.  I was hooked.  Of course, having been a clothing sewer previously, I didn't read closely about doing 1/4" seams.  Neither my mother's queen-sized quilt wasn't big enough nor was my double.   But I love quilting.   I would start quilting Friday night and by Sunday afternoon have a completed quilt.  Raising a family has slowed that a bit.

I seem to be a stripper by nature.   Although I have adventured into applique.   Just please don't mention "chickens" to me.   I sort of got off track on my quilting but have come back to it by hosting the UFO Hour on Sunday.  Please check the schedule for the exact time

I work for AT&T as an IT manager, but still make time for chatting with you, my quilting family
