Sorry for laughing out loud about this. i think we have all been there and onde that, whether FMQ or just plain piecing blocks. I have FMQ'd part of the rest of the quilt before, plus other scraps on different ones. I feel for you. At least yu can probably see the stitches better on the paper, than on fabric.

Oh no!

I was showing a finished quilt at "show & tell" at a guild meeting & when the back was turned toward the audience I heard someone starting to CACKLE. She was turning red & people were patting her on the back. When she finally recovered she said it just struck her funny that I had appliqued a few leaves on the back of my quilt and she was thinking of the time she did that to cover up a boo-boo & thought I might have done the same. (She was right)

Has anyone compiled a translation list of some kind that can be reproduced here? Subject matter helps decypher some, but other times I'm just stumped. Thanks Janet |
Why do I always find these threads after my husband goes to bed? I'm chuckling so much I might wake him up. And please know you are not alone. :oops:

That one is classic! :lol:
I usually show most of my stupid side when cutting. |

That is why I never let my grandchildren or great grandchildren into my sewing room LOL. This sounded so like me, I had to check the avatar to make sure I hadn't posted it. At least you would know where the swifter sweeper brochure was if left it there.

Fun to read all these. Our little boo-boos make life interesting and give us all a chuckle after we get them repaired.
|
LOL ha ha that is something I would probably do.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :shock: :lol: :lol:

Yes, there is. Search Abbreviations and the list pops up. I PM'd her to tell her. I guess a lot of newer people don't know.
