Sorry guys, but I finished the last bottle. We will have to make another run to the Wine and Spirits Shoppe. You know how it is when you are busy quilting.....you get very parched. Then your hands strart to cramp, and the only thing you can do for that is to exercise them in a different way. So I discovered that picking up a wine glass by the stem and tipping with the wrist helps immensely. Now, if you're not a wino...errrrrr.... wine conniseur, you can achieve the same results with a martini glass or a margarita glass. Just make sure you hold the pinky finger up to exercise it too. Also, you have to switch hands every few tips, so you get equal exercise in each hand.

I've been looking for the SS thread since Sunday night! I want to thank PatQuilts for the wonderful box of goodies I received. It seemed bottomless! I got a set of dishtowels (which perfectly match my newly painted kitchen), a wonderful selection of fqs, some pretty snowflakes, a great quilting magazine, a lovely snowflake glass (everybody is tired of seeing me with my red one), and all sorts of goodies. Thanks so much for your time and talent in putting together such a great gift! Merry Christmas to all of you!

Bless your heart! I'm right there with you, though! I fell down the doorsteps and broke my wrist, my ankle and my foot! Can't sew, quilt, paint (cook or clean or vacuum) so I am just sort of sitting here waiting for the elves to appear and do all I need to do! Oh well!!!
