About Me:
I started sewing when I got a battery operated sewing machine for Christmas when I was 5 years old. I started designing and making doll clothes. By High School, I was sewing for others and making quilts and stuffed animals.

After the birth of my first 4 children, I started tailoring at home and doing alterations for J.C. Penney's in Harrisburg PA. I have had my own in-home business since then.

Now I design and publish sewing patterns (booties, so far) for preemies and newborn babies up to 12 months old and try to keep up with my family (husband, 8 children, 1 step-daughter and 3 grandbabies) and keep my website up to date.

My new "Soft Landings" Airplane Bootie Pattern includes 7 sizes from preemie (2") up to Children's 9/10 (6 4/3")

I spend too much of my time on the computer, but I love it.

So here's the deal, I'm going to give one of you a new iPod Touch for being my friend on ThisNext. All you have to do is click here, sign up/in and click the "add +" below my picture and you're done. I've made it all on one page, so it takes about 43 seconds.

That's really all there is to it, but if you want more details visit slim slow slider.

On a grander note, I really believe you could benefit from the site.

Cheers.
