I started to sew when I was 6 or 7, but didn't made my first quilt till about 25 I think. I'm more than double that now and have made too many quilts to count! I didn't know to document them at first, now I keep photos in my computer but I still occasionally forget to get the pic!
Go ahead and whack the DH. Trust me, they need it! No matter how well I hide sweets, my DH will find them within 48 hours! I put a bag of cookies in the dead dishwasher and he found them in 2 days flat...and we hadn't used that dishwasher in over 5 years! He's positively eerie! And yes, I've replaced that old dishwasher too! Now he's a type 2 diabetic. He has switched to sugar-free candy, but he still eats 'real' sugar foods too, although not as much, and tells me his A1C is fine. I have to take his word for it... The newest member in one of my guilds is 18 and OMG is she a good quilter!!! |
64 right now

I promise not to share your age (he, he) but with the few thousand on our board. I am 44. You are? My quilt guild is over 100 in membership and nearly 60 in attendence each month.. so, all shape, heights and ages.. young ( 30's, to 80's) so.. he is just grumpy.. I call mine Archie, as in Archie Bunker.. He tells me I am no Edith.. I just smile.. take that as a compliment. hah! |

Give him my riddle to help out his sugar problem. I have celebrated the 21st anniversary of my 29th birthday. It really gets students thinking.
