Be lawn sprinkling a little later think I'll just sit in the falling water. I have A/C but like to preserve it's life as much possible.

I love this site as I am getting to know other quilters in Iowa

All my quilts go out as gifts so I guess they don't mind a mistake or two. Most of the receivers have no clue if a mistake has been made even.........lucky me.

Almost done with yet another over sized baby quilt. Trying to get what tops I have quilted before my quilting system is sold. I'm looking to getting a bigger system if I can wing it.

At 9:07pm on March 26, 2012, Gayle/La. said…: Thank you and I would appreciate this. I never thought that I would use them and never thought the kids would want one. They were on the clearance here at the Hancocks Fabric store. I should have bought more then as they were really cheap. I still hope you will find me some more. If you do just let me know and I will send you money. Thanks!

I had 2 of those panels for the advent calendar and let my SIL talk me out of one of them and it made my grandson upset since he had convinced himself that I would give him one for his house. He has the most kids and if I could get my hands on 2 or 3 more I would go ahead and do all those married kids one each. I bought 2 thinking to myself all the time that I probably wouldn't use the first one and now I cannot find them here. If you see any still available where you live I would pay you for 3 and the postage. I think they all need one. My SIL said she would like to use mine for a pattern so I traded her it for some handwork that I hadn't learned to do yet. LOL Thanks again for the nice comments.
