Intro


Hi, everyone! I'm Rebecca, aka Fibermom. I have four children, ages 14 to 23, and work full time managing an educational store. A former teacher and former homeschooler, I still do teacher workshops, writing, and that sort of thing as well, so I think of myself more as an educator than a retailer.
I knit, sew, quilt, crochet, embroider, make soap, and otherwise try to make as much of what I and my family use as possible. Of course that means that I garden and bake. I sing in a choir (sometimes two choirs, if I have time) and read a lot. I guess I have a pleasant, ordinary, busy life.
I made a nightgown (at left) from a Folkwear Victorian pattern in the cool weather,

so now I need to make one for the warm weather. My pattern is Folkwear 223 "A Lady's Chemise" and I have some lightweight Cuddleskin (satin on the outside and flannel on the inside) to make it from. The pattern involves a lot of handwork, which is my favorite part, so I am looking forward to that.

I'm also looking forward to getting to know all you interesting ladies better!
