IF I was a perfectionist I'd do that but (as you've seen!!!) I'm not so I think I'll stick with wonkies and squoogies!

PS I had noticed your new French signature - I LOVE it, sorry should have commented earlier. I also noticed that you put the old one back again as well! :D :wink:

why not let people talk? they'll think you have a fascinating private life. who knows? i hope you do.
yes, i had changed it for my other favorite saying, which is really an extension of the same feeling. then i figured, s**t, why not go all the way?

Si tu ne peux pas voler si haut que tu veuilles, vols si haut que tu puisses!
Probably not grammatically correct but close enough!

only if the quilt is large. baby quilts not neccessary for me.. I hand stitch the binding on for baby quilts.
Parkenson's people.. if on top of meds, machine stitching ok.. other wise that needle going up and down and hands side to side.. always a scary thing !!
