I try to make them as perfect as I know how. I follow through with every commitment I make on this board in the swaps to the very best of my ability. And the argument for smoking/non smoking offends me.
Now girls ... all is good, don't worry. It could have come from the huge northern California forest fire that blanketed my area (all of reno really) for a week and a half or better. It blew in here and just stayed like a London fog for a while. It was terrible, I could hardly breathe. Check with the tv station news, it was bad!
I don't want you to be offended Judith. I didn't smell any smoke while I was swapping out. I did have the whole house open that day (not smoky outside) and it was a pleasant doing it with that sweet breeze blowing though.
I know sometimes I do smell something, but I think it is fabric that lives in a different state. Does that make sense? I know north Carolina fog always smelled to me like cooking broccoli in Fairview where I lived. LOL!
And one more thing ... I love the sparkly fabric, but it sometimes smells funny to me. Maybe that is what she smelled.
