My DH asked me what I was going to do with all those rags I bought. I said what rags? He said all those rags you bought yesterday. I bought a bundle of fat quarters.
...so hubby just watched a ball game and said something about paying a illion dollars a second for advertising.
I said, "I wish I got paid a million dollars for talking a second."
He said, "you couldn't do it." I said, "do what?"
He said, "just talk for a second."
I said, " I could stop at one second for a million dollars. I'd be out that door and on my way to Joann Fabrics.:
He said, "I'd stop your butt before you got to the steps."
I said, "why? I'd have a million dollars?"
He said cause I'd want my half first. You ain't going to no rag house with a million dollars in your pocket!"
Geesh, you'd think he didn't trust me or something. I'm sure I could get some really great rags with that kind of money! :lol:

I alway prewash my quilt fabrics. The shrink or wrinkle look also happens with the pre-wash as well. I had not thought about washing quilts before giving away. I do believe I will start doing this.
