That is hilarious!!! It is a lovely color, but not one that can be used everywhere....
I knew we girls liked it better than the guys....

It has been raining here since Monday and it is very cold . The only good thing about winter is that you can sit inside and sew...except if you have to go to work. 1 more day to go and then it is the weekend.

I am hoping to have my quilting frame in the next couple of weeks. No more paying $200+ for each quilt or fighting with the machine on my table to do it....best of all NO MORE PINS

Keep sewing,
Marcia.

Boy, are you gonna be busy with your new frame and all of that quilting! Good for you Make sure and post some pic's for us to see your new set up and finished projects

Yahoo. for a new quilting machine. I really do't have the room...I am looking forward to the day when I do, though.

I just received this in an email - (shame the pictures have not copied across as well) - and I really had to share it with everyone.


LADIES!!!!!!!!! and some MEN,,,


Remember...
a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.

'A house becomes a home when you can write 'I love you' on the furniture.'

I used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just perfect - 'in case someone came over'.
Finally I realised one day that no-one came over; they were all out living life and having fun!
NOW, when people visit, I don't have to explain the 'condition' of my home .

They are more interested in hearing about the things I've been doing while I was away living life and having fun.
If you haven't figured this out yet, please heed this advice.

Life is short. Enjoy it!
Dust if you must ..........


but wouldn't it be better to paint a picture or write a letter,
bake cookies or a cake and lick the spoon or plant a seed,
ponder the difference between want and need?!
Dust if you must, but there's not much time . . . .

with beer to drink , rivers to swim and mountains to climb ,
music to hear and books to read, friends to cherish
and life to lead.

Dust if you must,

but the world's out there with the sun in your eyes,
the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain.
This day will not come around, again.

Dust if you must ,
but bear in mind, old age will come and it's not kind. . .

And when you go - and go you must - you, yourself will make more dust!


Share this with all the wonderful women in your life.
I JUST DID.
It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived.

Mouse, wonderful quote!!!

Fabriholic...just received your rooster!!! he is darling...exquistie work!!!

Mouse, I just want to say again that I liked your quote. Yes, clean houses are nice and there is a limit to dust and dirt and clutter...but we should never lose sight of the great big world out there or the little one near us..(our family and friends)
