I heard it as SABLE - Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy

Thanks for explaining these acronyms. However, I did have difficulty with one of them. When I told my husband I was going shopping for SEX, I got in a lot of trouble!

[quote=Lockeb]I just a newsletter from one of the quilt shops where I like to visit..and they listed some new acronyms that I've never heard before...perhaps they are not as new for you - but I got a kick out of these...

PIGS (projects in grocery sacks)
SEX (stash enhancement exercise)
SABLE (stash above and beyond life expectation)
Ph.D. (projects half done

And here's the link they gave for lots more...

Thanks for the lesson in acronyms I always seem to be asking what they are talking about when they show up... to cute some of them that is for sure!
