This page is under development and may be for some time!! My friends ask me "why a webpage?" Well, I guess for several reasons. I love a challenge and learning something new and the computer holds these fascinations. Also, I struggled to find information on the toys I collect and wanted a medium in which to share this information. My interests are quilting, grandchildren, gardening and collecting toys. And I guess we better add the computer to that! I could show you a picture of me, but I prefer to show you the 3 pretty little girls in my life--my grandaughters, Rylee, Tuke and Annika. Cute, huh?!?!?

I am a retired pharmacist, married to a not retired Dentist, named Don. Don works for my old employer the University of Oregon (Go Ducks!) All our children (his and mine) are grown. We live in an old bungalow in Eugene, Oregon with a yellow lab named Molly and a cat named Morty. Here is a picture of Molly with Rylee:

I have been making quilts since I was a young girl and will eventually add a quilting page to my website. I spend much of my day (when I'm not playing with the computer) hand-quilting or piecing new quilt tops. I have always loved antiques and have collected many of them over the years. Gardening is a passion I share with my husband. I collect the Fisher Price Chunky People and help my oldest daughter collect the Fisher Price Little People. You can find a lot of information about these toys as well as links on my chunky page - just click on the chunky:
