The nice part of it, is that the labels are showing, and everyone can see that I made them for her kids..
As for the question - I'd get rid of the high cost of things, too. And yes, people who think they know everything better than you, or that their way is only right way. I'm also messy while creating, but have an overall plan for organization. |
Expensive fabrics that fade, shrink or bleed!

Oh, where to start!!!! Mostly, I agree with Jan, Linda and Wanabee. I just want to quilt, not deal with ignorant people, fabrics that run and those who expect me to be a plodder when I am creating like crazy. fortunately, I have a wonderful, understanding DH who loves my quilts.

When I purchase fabric and ask for 1 yard and you get 34" when its squared up! :mad:

Beliefs that you can't do this or that....Do what you want and don't stress over other people's opinons. This is YOUR hobby. Discouraging words and looks need to GO!

My quilt police have 4 legs. They wander into my sewing room lie down roll on their backs get up, walk out and take the loose threads and sometimes llight crumb scraps with them. Their reward is a pat on the head or a treat.

I'm with linda8450. Just leave me alone till I'm done! (Yet I don't ever get to be "done.") My son lives near me and he used to get a pretty pained expression on his face when he came to my house. Guess he was uneasy with having a mother who was not inherently neat. But I think he has finally accepted it (did he have a choice?)

A big AMEN to that, Jan!!!
