Missed one - didn't know about the width of 30s fabric.

crkathleen 09-02-2009 10:52 AM

I missed 3. I'm surprised it wasn't more. :lol:

Lisanne 09-02-2009 11:42 AM

Same here. Missed 3, was surprised I got as many as I did, but then again, I was also surprised that I was sure if the ones I did get.

kathyd 09-02-2009 11:45 AM

I missed 2. Sometimes we can amaze ourselves with the knowledge we have!!
Thanks for posting this.

joeyoz 09-02-2009 03:55 PM

it does! it does! and you should give all your friends fat quarter samples.

JoanneS 09-06-2009 03:33 PM

I missed the feedsack one - don't know ANYTHING about feedsack fabric! And I definitely didn't expect it to have border prints!

Tippy 09-06-2009 04:00 PM

I got them all.. but almost missed one. Never think too hard about stuff, you'll outsmart yourself. Home Ec Major ... Nope.. but I did win the "Betty Crocker Homemaker of tomorrow" My senior year.

nursie76 09-06-2009 04:52 PM

Missed 3 but am totally shocked I didn't miss more!

Minda 09-06-2009 05:14 PM

I missed one. I didn't know the width of a bolt of fabric in 1930.

This is probably "sour grapes" but I thought that was a poor question. Not all feedsacks had borders like that. I made 80%. A little embarrasing since I, too, am a Home Economics graduate. :oops:
This was fun. I'll have to stop second-guessing. It always gets me in trouble. :lol:

dizzy 09-06-2009 05:25 PM

well i got 4 wrong out of 15 73%

Mousie 09-06-2009 06:11 PM

well, dizzy, your in good company, I missed four.
I didn't really expect to do any better than that, so I was neither surprised, nor disappointed.
I didn't get the 1800's fabric, I thought too hard on the fugitive dye question...thought it might be a trick question. nope.
got the warp and the weft mixed up, so I guessed. Won't forget now...stretches the least, but still warped - LOL
hmm, can't recall, the other one, and was going to, for future fun. Oh well, just have to get my kicks someplace else, besides history etc. of fabrics, huh? :mrgreen:

burnsk 09-06-2009 06:22 PM

Missed #3 (1800's fabric) and #15 (shirting fabric). Oh well, not too bad for not studying for the test LOL

My respect and admiration :wink: 8) 8) 8)

dixiechunk 09-07-2009 09:18 AM

I missed two - the one about the width of the 30's fabrics and the one about stretch. I knew that lengthwise was the least stretch but didn't know which was weft and which was woof? warp?. Sheesh, talk about short term memory!
