What did you want to be when you grew up?

My goodness, Louise, I never knew you were a lawyer....you're much too nice! I agree with the landscape designer.....but math was never my strong suit, & I know Garret said it was a tough part of the degree.......

I wanted to train horse. In HS I liked being a stagehand, and went to school for that. I started building sets and hanging lights, then discovered I had a talent with the sewing machine and finished with doing costumes. Now I'm sewing from home, business is picking up.

Oh Oh - sewing. I used to many years ago. I have picked up fabric to do a jacobs ladder quilt but its too intese. I still want to make a comforter/quilt with matching curtains as I picked up 9 bolts of fabric at an auction sunday. I just dont think I am capable now. Any suggestions Jumper.

check out the sewing and quilting forum, lots of helpful ladies there.

I mostly work with clothes.

I have been there and drool over their quilts!

I wish I had kept up with my sewing training I got in home ec.....weird my mom never really taught me all those things....she used to sew all the time, she made all my dolls clothes

1976 is the last year I sewed. So its been 36 years not 40

Actually, 34!

I must be having a bad day!

A dolphin.

LOL. That's funny, dahlianut!

oops I just saw the question was what 'did' you want to be when you grow up and not what what 'do' you want to be when you grow up so:

When I was a seedling I wanted to grow up to be a fairy; not a fairy princess but your average ordinary run-of-the-woods fairy.
When I was a kidling I wanted to grow up to be a rock and roll star.
When I was a people, I wanted to be a dahlianut.
NOW I want to be a dolphin when I grow up

you are CRAZY!

I want to be a cat!

I want to be a fairy....pixie's get a bad rap. ^_^

Meow!!!

Why am I not surprised?

Hee hee. Cats lead a charmed life.

And you get 9 lives :)

Hopefully!
