The great news is that I actually got one nonquilting friend quilting........

"Spread the love" :lol:

Hey Joan, we could go door to door, have a little pamphlet printed - spread the word! :mrgreen:

Now THAT is a good idea.The pamphlet should be printed on some gorgeous fabric,don't you think? I'm surprised someone hasn't started a business like Tupperware or Mary Kay Products. That is one party I would go to and actually buy something. They could show fabric and ideas for quilts and sell kits and such. Maybe, "I" should go into business....

I've been trying to think of an easy project for my Red Hat Group. None of them quilt, can you imagine?????? (What dull lives.........)

Hi Penny: I hope you're laughing at the content and NOT the terrible errors I made in my last post...it must have either been late or I was very tired (from quilting all day and scrutenizing the spots on my "Tabby" cat's coat to see how THAT pattern could be worked into my next quilt. I usually try to proof read my entries before hitting the SEND but it obviously didn't happen that time. :lol: :oops:

I love to people watch espically when Randy & I are out eating, he isn't a huge talker so I have to amuse myself, and I am always pointing out to him..."thats mans shirt would look great in a quilt" Randy will tease me & roll his eyes.

That's why I had to give up my Red Hat group. Nothing to talk about :lol: Other than getting old and where to eat. :lol:
