My name is Anjea, and I live in Austin, TX, with my DH and two Siberian huskies. I am a quilter with a penchant for brights and batiks, an epee fencer that dabbles in sabre, and a lefty with a strange affection for flamingos. Please comment and let me know that you stopped by!
Beeker and Bunsen want to thank Husky Haven for giving them a second chance!
