I have been trying to get my fabrics in some kind of order since this morning. I still have a long way to go. My oldest daughter just walked in here, looked around and said "whoa that's a big mess". I said give me some time I am trying to get it all orgaganized. Then she said "well maybe you should just buy fabric to make 1 blanket at a time." I can't believe that came out of her mouth, what is wrong with that girl LOL.

Hold on and pray....she'll grow out of it. I had to wait till my daughter turned 35 before she saw the light and straightened up!!! :mrgreen:
|
too funny...lol
:wink: |
Hold on and pray....she'll grow out of it. How's that quote go?? "One-who-quilts buys fabric with a specific pattern in mind, but those who just buy fabric to use at some time are quilters." I can't remember it exactly... but she can't help it if she's not old enough to be a quilter yet. Be sure to remind her how lucky she is to have a quilter for a mother!! I have to say, quilters are much funnier than horse people. :D |
WHO YOU CALLING FUNNY????
|
Poor thing. I'm sure she will out grow it.

kids

They just dont get it.
|
They need their own hobby. Here, fly tying is the dominant mess maker. NO ONE says a word to me about my quilting stuff! Even though I'm out numbered, they know not to EVEN go there!
|
Whats the ol' saying of "she who dies with the most fabric wins" How would you ever win? I know I would be atleast a runner up.
Good luck in the retraining of her. |
LOL! Crazy kid! I have a few of those too.
|
LOL!

Did you drop this poor child on her head when she was little? :):) Just tell her she's been cut out of the will as you are spending all your money on fabric.
Or you could threaten her like I do my kids- who ever is lowest on the favorites list when I die, they get the treasured 'crap' that is crammed in the garage. That will teach them hahahha... |
IJM, at least she noticed...The only one of my girls who seems even remotely interested in sewing/quilting is my youngest...she want to get some corduroy and have me help her ake a quilt for her DH. (They were just married this past September.)
|
If your DD is any thing like my DD. I told her have you cleaned your room yet?

Oh, dear, even my boys learned by early age not to mess with or talk about Mom's fabric. Those days I was sewing clothes and they might get a shirt out of one of those "gaudy" (as IF) fabrics. Now they are 35 and 39 and they ask why I haven't bought any fabrics lately. :lol: :lol: :shock:

Hope you washed her mouth out with soap. lol
