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!

I went over to my friend Deana’s last night to quilt Cookies & Cream on her longarm. For the most part, I didn’t have any tension issues, but I broke a needle right off the bat. She forgot to turn the speed up for me, and the needle deflection on the broken needle [...]
