In order to be politically correct, I think we need to phrase this better. "what do the men know". As a man, it should probably be worded more like this. "what do non-quilters know." 8)


Very true! oops... sorry about that guys. :oops:

:-)

I dragged hubby into the sewing room last night to check out my latest creation, and he stared at it and said "I don't like the background, it's the same colour as half the block".

I was taken aback for a minute, till I remembered he's COLOURBLIND! pmsl :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why do I forget that?!? LOL There are some colours he can't tell apart and this was one of them.
He does recognise nice points though. :-)

You go girl!!!!

You are correct ~ quilting is not a "woman's thing" very Un-PC of me. In my family I can still use that phrase because they (the men in my family) are clueless in regards to quilting. 8) I hope you were not offended and I stand corrected.

As long as he notices the points. :lol:

I wasn't offended at all. I found it very amusing. And I just wanted to remind everyone, there are a few of us guys on here. Some of us can even tell the difference between colors and whether points are straight.

I'm delighted to hear there's a man in the swap!
I couldn't find which block you are making but I bet it's a good one!

Well I got one set finished tonight. :D :D :D

Just have to see if I can get another set done before I have to post them across the pond *crosses fingers* :?

I would love to participate. However, I am a new quilter. Is it OK if my block is a simple one?

Understand might be too strong a word. But I've seen a color wheel before... :lol:
