Welcome to the first posting of the new Baby’s Breath Quilts blog where I hope to share with you what is happening in the wonderful world of quilting and my life in general. It is my hope to keep this interesting and, dare I say, informative?! Your patience will be greatly appreciated as I learn to blog and any suggestions that you may have for improvements will be greatly appreciated! It is my hope that, in addition to sharing with you my thoughts, you will do the same. Any quilting questions you may have, ideas for new quilts, and helpful crticism will all be welcome.
I would like to start off by telling everyone a little about myself. My name is Jennifer Arey and I am a WAHM (Work At Home Mom) with two awesome little boys, ages 5 and 3. I started quilting 14 years ago when I was taught by my mother and in 2006 I launched Baby’s Breath Quilts. This has allowed me to stay at home while my sons are still young and help support my family.
The creation of Baby’s Breath Quilts would not be possible without the loving support of my husband, Jeff. He is willing to put up with way too much take-out pizza, watching the boys in the evenings, giving up his week-end so I can vend at craft fairs, and he is not afraid to wash the occasional dish or run the vaccuum. I know – how did I get so lucky?? The secret is that we started dating when I was 15 and he was 16, so we have had quite a while to get to know one another (aka training). Our 10th wedding anniversary was this year.
