    In answer to recent questions about my avatar - this was the dilemma: I have no pictures of the few quilts I have made. So I decided I would use pics of other things I have done. The option was some origami pockets I had made or the embroidered toilet paper. Which do you think would work best?

    Well I was born in Texas but not raised there (after the age of 5) so I guess that's why I've never seen embroidered toilet paper. How in the world do you do it??? I would use that avatar just to stir up mischief.

    I've heard that one before! Don't worry about the strange looks - native Texans are a unique breed, ha ha!

    I've never ever heard of anyone embroidering on toilet paper! Why don't you alternate them - you know, give a month to one then change and give a month to the other.
