I agree. Perhaps those long armers should display a solid quilt. It would be beautiful.

Well, I'm late coming to vote, but I prefer the Jalepenos...and I spell Chili with one L..- the country, the dish and the veggie..they are veggies, right?

Now...I want to see the quilted version of "ruffled feathers!"

At a quilt show held by the Napa, CA guild, several LAQ's had samples on display. Quite a few of the samples were on solid fabric which really displayed their talents with free-hand work. Others were on typical quilt patterns in order to demonstrate what "could" be done. It was a wonderful way to see various types of quilting as well as the quality of the quilting.

when I backpacked in countries where the US was not welcomed, I put on my best Canadian accent and said aboot and oot like my neighbors to the north. Fortunately the Maine accent is very close to Nova Scotia.

I didn't sew a maple leaf on my pack the way many true Canadians did.

Botanically they are a fruit as they carry the seeds. Like bell peppers, eggplant, zuccini, squashes, tom-aaaaah-toes etc. :mrgreen: :lol:

Out of curiousity, I looked up the word origin -- The country Chile comes from a mis-interpretation by the Spanish explorers of the local word for their country and the name of their leader. I didn't really find anything for the fruit/veggie name.
