    I know I have been around for awhile now. But I still don't know all the quilting lingo. Like what is DD, DH, and so forth. I believe I may know a couple of them. But not sure of all the lingo.

    I always spell it out, because sometimes they just don't seem so dear.

    My grammar teacher would be proud too. LOL

    I need to check the site- we always refer to them as Dear- but what if they are being a PITA? Do I go PITAH? Just kidding- (j/k) he's very well behaved.
