...if someone tells you they're expecting a baby and the first thing you say is "Oh good, I get to make another quilt!"

Wow! You must really live extravagantly, if you own a motor home that has a basement! ROFLMAO!

amma, did better than that and used the scrub material scraps and made quilts from them. in Ca. you can get 10 pound bags for 10 dollars so the girls and i did for a quilt class. just gave some to sil to make baby quilts since she has a bunch of grandkids. we made totes for the childrens home and baby quilts for a lady for a orphanage just so you know it was nice material to work with .

You look at the tiles in the bathroom floor and think, Quilt Pattern!

the adams homestead in quincy ma has the first "presidential" library, the floor tiles are an ohio star pattern....

the national part guide told me i was the 3rd or 4th woman to tell him that in a couple weeks time..
