I think this is kinda fun. Read the words, but set them to the tune of "My Favorite Things" (from the Sound of Music).

It's from Avlyn's up-and-coming "Fixit" group. Coordinates are a tool toss, nuts-and-bolts, three colors of pegboard, two wooden flooring, and a stripe that includes all the motifs. If anyone would like me to post those pictures, too, just let me know.

I don't know about men, Sharon, I have all of those tools in my toolshed, but then I live on my own, and if I want something doing, I have to do it myself. I think that fabric is a great idea, but not sure I would want it in a quilt for myself though.

How cute! I think my DH would love a wall hanging or possibly a throw made from this fabric. The items on the fabric are most definitely among his favorite things. :-)
