1. Musicals or plays? And what are your favorites?
Musicals all the way! I have quite a few favorites, but I think my all-time favorite musical has to be Les Miserable. You just will never get a better storyline than that.
2. Do you have any "hidden" talents that have not made it into your blog?
I think just about everyone knows I sing and play the piano and have a serious affinity for baking. Some of the kids actually call me Cupcake Lady, because I used to make themed cupcakes for play groups.
3. Are you a reader? If so, what are you reading right now?
I am most definitely a reader. I am right in the middle of Inheritance (the last of the Eragon books), and so far I'm underwhelmed by it. Hopefully the end will resolve alright though.
4. What is your favorite time of day?
I answered this last time, but currently I would have to say at night when I'm sleeping. I don't get enough of it, so I thoroughly enjoy it when it occurs.
5. Do you save the selvages from fabric? Have you ever made anything with them?
I don't. I've seen some seriously cute quilts using selvages, but I can't bring myself to save anymore scraps than I already do.
6. What is your favorite quilt you've ever made?
My favorite quilt is still probably the Diamond Chains quilt I made for my sister-in-law. Ironically, it's from a quilt-along that Melinda hosted this past Fall.
7. What color comes up most often in your quilts?
I was just thinking about this yesterday. Recently it would be purple because all of my skill builder blocks are different shades of purple although just about every kid quilt of late has had red in it - which is funny, because I never thought of myself as really liking red, but both of our cars are red, and all of my bright-colored quilts tend to have red in them, so maybe I like it more than I realize.

8. Do you play music while you sew? What songs get you motivated?
I do have music playing in the background sometimes, but it's rarely the same thing twice. I have very eclectic tastes, so my mood determines what I want to listen to (the same thing happens when I go running with my iPod as well).
9. What's the worst injury you've ever suffered?
Um, that would definitely have to be when I shot myself in the finger with my dad's gun when I was 4 years old. It's a long story, but trust me when I say it hurt. It's actually my first memory....good times. I'll tell ya the whole story sometime if you're interested. :)
10. Do you come from a large family or a small family?
I come from a large family although I never really thought of it as being particularly large. I'm the oldest of 5 children. Now that I have 2 children of my own I think my parents were amazing and have no idea how they did it.
11. Have you always lived in your current hometown? If not, how far away do you live from the town where you were born?
I've lived in the Columbus, Ohio area for 18 months now although I feel like it's been a lot longer than that. We came for my husband's Pediatric Residency. It's quite a ways away from where I was born - Los Angeles. I'm actually the 5th generation of Stuetz's to be born in Los Angeles, but it stops with me, because I don't think we'll be having any kids in Cali anytime soon. I was born a California girl but have lived on the East coast most of my life.
SO there you have it, Folks. I'll skip the tagging part this time around (unless you really want to do it), but it's definitely fun to play along.
