Default It is FINALLY FINISHED!!!!

Today at 4:11pm Central Time I sewed the last stitch into the binding of the quilt from hell. I can't wait to see the thing out of my house.
That is all.

Funny you should bring this up ! I too just finished the last stitch on a binding for quilt that was ... well... not exactly my favorite( being very polite) .. by a long stretch! Like you I can not wait to get it out of MY HOUSE. I will be at the post office tommorow first thing and get it on its way!
I feel such relief , I can completey relate to how you are feeling! Now on to sewing something FUN! PS I rewarded myself with chocolate!

I have to take pictures tomorrow when the light is better. I'll post them tomorrow night - promise.

I just pulled some Christmas prints out of my stash to make some mug rugs for the girls at work. That is my reward, to make something I want to make, that doesn't take the gestation period of an elephant to finish.

You have made me crack up twice in one post. I know just how you feel too! By the way, just how long is an elephant's gestation period? I still can't wipe the smile off my face. LOL! Can wait to see your pic tomorrow night!

Oh Oh I know this one!!! The gestation period of an elephant is 22 months! I am currently a student in a Registered Vet Tech program and we had to know this last month for our final!!! I guess I really am learning something!!

Wow! 22 months... those poor mommy elephants! Can you imagine? LOL You get an A+!
(I like your signature quote too)

Okay, here's one they won't teach you at Vet Tech school:
Do you know how to tell when it is that time of the month for an elephant?



There's a quarter on your dresser and your mattress is missing! (hee hee)
