I live in Washington State in USA, in a small town that has lots of apple, cherry and pear orchards around it. I sew quilts for fun as I am retired. I have two poodle dogs, one is white, a toy size, the other a little bigger, a black miniature. I hope your grandmother is happy. She is lucky to have you help her. Hope you get to learn helpful things at school so you will be happy with your life.
