It was the start of a beautiful friendship. She made countless clothes for her two young boys along with clothes for herself. She ran a Home Dec business for eight years making window treatments of all kinds, pillows, duvet covers, and more. She closed her business to work as a mechanical engineer at the shipyard to put her two sons through college. Diane is now retired and enjoying more time to sew. |
