I went to Wal Mart Saturday about 11:30 pm after a dance and thought it would be a great time to shop...I had about 6 bolts of b/w material I wanted cut and asked the young girl if she could cut fabric for me. She rolled her eyes, threw everything on the counter into a box and proceeded to cut my fabric....I didnt know whether to laugh or to cry! I wanted a half yard of each and she could NOT figure out what a 1/2 a yard was in inches!! When the young man came over and showed her how to figure it out then she couldnt figure out how to cut it even so I showed her the rail in the counter that you use to "cut" the fabric and how to lay the fabric so she could cut it...She couldnt figure out how to scan the price and print them all out on one ticket so I ended up with 7 different tickets, one on each piece....When I told her I wanted a yard of one fabric I thought she was going to have a heart attack figuring out what a yard was in inches...
I tried not to laugh that whole time but when she didnt want to pin the tickets on the fabric because she "always sticks herself" I laughed out loud and pined them on myself....I asked if she ever sewed and she said Lord no, not since I was a kid! That will teach me to shop late at night at Wal Mart! LOL.
Im so glad others are in agreement about "fast" groups. Its so nice to get them back on time and be able to put your blocks together fast. I hope April does another fast group next time...just dont like waiting 4 months to start another fast group!
Times a flying by and I want to sew as much as I can, while I can! I ONLY have 6 tops finished, waiting to go to quilters..
Have a great weekend!
