The Drunkard's Path story is funny. (A little hidden message there...lol.) I wish I was talented enough at FMQing to write some witty things into my quilts. Alas...I am not. This whole topic reminds me of the urban legend about the Disney animators sneaking sexy images into their drawings. My kids kept bringing it up, so, of course, I had to go and google it. There were a couple of things that seemed subversively sexy, but most weren't THAT sexy. You really had to have quite an imagination to read "sex" into the drawings.

I quilted a beer themed quilt for my SIL. It had a plush back so the stitching 'embossed' itself on the back. I wrote out what I wanted to say on paper, flipped it over and stitched it backwards. You can read it on the back...I says

" If you can read this, you are sober enough for another beer"...It was a hit!
