Just read through the thread and thought I should answer some of the questions I have found. I will be looking for my partners answers as soon as I get a name.
1. What's your favorite color? Worst color? Favorite is deep, rich purple. However, I like all the bright rainbow colors too. Worst color(s) are browns, muddy or muted neutrals.
2. Fabric type - Batiks, whimsical, fun, text, polka dots
3. Quilting style – Just starting out so I don’t know much about modern. Traditional and scrappy I understand.
4. Pets? One large spoiled orange tabby cat
5. Coffee or Tea? Both, anytime
6. Chocolate - love it, especially dark chocolate
7. Do you prefer homemade gifts or store bought? Homemade gifts hold a sentimental value for me, but I stink at making them. Either is greatly appreciated.
8. What's your favorite flower? Stargazer lilies (and daisies)
9. Your favorite snack? Dill pickles, potato chips, Skittles
10. What's playing in your sewing area when your there? TV is usually on with some program I don’t care to watch. I live alone so it is mostly to break up the quiet.
11.Do you like the Clover binding clips? I use them a lot. Found 2 boxes of 50 on clearance for less than $15 each
