That is too funny, and I am happy to hear that you have stuck with these "carpenters" and learned how to quilt! You should be proud of yourself!

Fun story! It reminded me of a conversation overheard at a potluck dinner for quilters that the husbands attended. One was discussing how his wife kept getting out of the ditch the other said "well why don't you fix her tractor!" We laughed. moosegirl

..... LQS I had it figured out to be ..... Longarm Quilt Society Was I surprised when I discovered it was ..... Local Quilt Shop! Maybe you should start a new thread about this alphabet soup? |
Speaking of language. My dad mentioned one day that they had more to get through than he had girls to sew. My father and grandfather had a manchester factory and needed some extra help. I volunteered to go and help them. First day there and all were busy sewing sheets, pillow cases, mattress covers etc. One of the girls stood up to get some more work that had been cut ready for them. On the way back to her machine she said - Claire, how about you strip and I'll top. I looked up in amazement. It was then explained to me. When making mattress covers they have a strip or wall around the sides that joins onto the bottom of the cover and then the top goes on with an opening at one end to get the mattress in and then it ties with tapes. I have learned that all trades have thier own terms but I thought that "stripping" was a bit much. I have been sewing all my life but that is the funniest I have heard.
Happy "stripping" everyone. lol from Gleniveve |
