I overheard on of my grown daughters and her friend talking. Amy said her mother made her clothes because they were too poor to buy many, which isn't totally true, but it's her perception. My Laura answered that her mother made all her clothes because she could do better than any store and I (Laura) could have different things no one else could have. Quilting is so different from apparel sewing. It's been a learning curve, but then so is weight loss as I spent most of life trying to gain weight - until my thyroid burned itself out when I was in my forties.

Jeanne, you did well with your coffee hour goodies last week. You can do it again.

Y'all have a good evening.
