Tomorrow I will do that and make the backing. Then I get to start quilting these. (4) I actually talked myself out of going to Joann's! I can't believe it.
I'm so proud of you!! I wasn't so good. No Joann's just Handcock's. I spent $50.00 but saved about $20.00!

So!
She posted that all she did all day was quilt for her GGKs and successfully accomplished almost everything she had to get done.
SHE DID NOT GO!
And, we are all proud of her, but it was a fun thread while we all contemplated going on down to JoAnn's to wait at the door for her arrival.
I figured we could all just follow her around and "help" ... I waited all day at home for her, but she was true to her word.
SHE DID NOT GO!
Bless you, woman, bless you! <wave>

Thank you! I was quite proud of myself! My DH kept coming in and asking if I was going (both days he did) I kept saying I WASN'T GOING.......................He didn't believe me untill both days were over!

I don't know if you have the willpower, but after a successful battle, I would be greatly tempted to go on a shopping spree! That is so bad of me!
On the other hand, I really don't like shopping so never got into the habit of window shopping (no see - not tempted) ... but, I do sometimes just have to bust out and SPEND!
Lately, I have settled on just going to the thrift store and finding some good cotton shirts to add to my stash -- I spend a lot less, but do get a little reward.
enough about me, already - - I am glad that you didn't go, and I know that you have every right to be proud of yourself. <wave>
