Hi everyone I am pamela and I am from Astoria Oregon.  I live right on the the columbia river, "The grave yard to the Pacfic".  As it sometimes is known, I have lived in Astoria 28 years.  I have a wonderful husband and 2 teens 3 dogs 1 cat are in my family.  I have a 17 year old daughter and 14 year old son.

I am often a football mom durning the fall season and a wrestling mom during the spring.

I began crafting and sewing at the age of 16 years and have gone non-stop.  I now have an online store www.franklyitskuteproductions.com  In my store I create all kinds of crafts, rag rugs, cloth dolls, stuffed animals, quilts, pillows, and what ever else I can think up.   I have just started a blog and Its called  Its just frankly kute.  In my blog I will have recipes that are simple and quick, sometimes I talk about what I am working on, contests and what is quite fun.

I love crafting, I would say my most favorite thing to create is the cloth dolls, I have found old vintage cloth dolls and have created them with some new ideas in mind.  Second is my quilts, they are one of kind and each one tells a story of its own.  

I love using my imagination to the fullest!

Lately I have gone into all kinds of things in crafting, I love making my own paper dolls, fabric bowls.  Working with chalkboard fabric that is painting on it!  I really love the way I quilt too, its one of kind and the reason I think that is because of my ability to cartoon.  I was a published cartoonist for 3 local papers out in Montana and I did the cartoons for 3 1/2 years.  Next I did the drawing for a book call Be Bold GET OLD!  It was tons of fun to do the drawnings for the book.  My quilting is a form of wacking, I will sit first though and draw an idea or sometimes I just start cutting away at the fabric and just letting the quit take its own form.  

As I mentioned I am a serious pet lover I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, the youngest one is oreo and I am using her picture she naturally is my baby!  You can often find me playing around on www.dogster.com and caster.com.  

Being a mom keeps me busy, one teen girl and one teen boy who is about to leave the 8th grade. Yad it makes feel older but I keep alive the little kid through crafting.  My daughter will be a senior next fall too.... phew!

My husband is wonderful, a very hard working mule train truck driver.  When he choose this job.  We decided that I should stay at home so that our children would always have a parent at home.  He works hard and is devoted dad.  So you can always find me home on the computer or at the sewing machine.
