    I like UFP for UnFinished Project better than UFO. Objects (to me) shouldn't have so many pieces!

    UFO = Un-Finished (quilting) Object. It does take some time to understand the terms used in quilting.

    I only need one example of a silly question to prove they exist, true?

    Why was six afraid of seven?

    I used to tell students all the time that the only 'silly' question was the unasked one
    Merry Christmas!
    (Traditionally we don't say, 'Happy Holidays', but that too.)

    I'm so glad you asked. I hadn't heard about PIGS or PHDs either. Good to know.

    because, seven eight nine. I love that silly joke. Maybe it's a Bay Area thing ;-)

    Oh, okay ... I thought it was because seven was after six, but your answer makes more sense!

    I can never remember what PIGS stands for, & I think it's because we never use the word "sack," but say "bag" instead. That has to be a regional thing!
