Hey, not a bad idea. My new 50" plasma TV has a way to use the little camera discs. I can watch all my saved pictures will I sew.

Or would that be counterproductive?

I am not going to order in 2011, I am not going to order in 2011, I am not going to order in 2011.....I hope!

That's one thing I never spend money on. I save pictures of quilts and projects taht I can easily copy myself. If it's compicated enough that I need a pattern, it ain't happenin' at my house!

My plan is to go through this binder one-by-one for 2011 and quit bouncing all over the place.

Can you get back to us about Feb. 1st and tell us how this plan is going? tee hee

[quote=OmaForFour]How about if you put the name of each on a small piece of paper and put them (folded) in a jar. Pick one. When that one is done, pick another.

Sounds like an easy way to decide!

I wouldn't buy anything from them now - they are really pesky.

There's a little screen that pops up all the time on the lower right side of the screen that I turn off as soon as it pops up. I'll have to see what the site is. I HATE IT!

We need to take up a petition to make the days longer so we will have enough extra time to quilt. :)

I wear out quickly. What I need is a quick nap drug that lets me get a two hour nap in 15 minutes. lol
