Yup, that's me - certifiable! After all, I'm the one who's been quilting with 200 male inmates for nearly 9 years!!! No sane person would do that, would they? We joke about the fact that anyone wanting to go to the Corrections Academy to be a Corrections Officer must have a psych eval. However, non-security staff (like me) don't. The reason - we probably wouldn't pass it!!!

So glad you have decided to join us! I love the idea of purle background. I'm going to see if I can find your pics now!

Welcome to the group, kitty. Your grape batik background sounds scrumptious. Gotta go look at your blocks.

Linda, in north central Texas, Welcome! Nice to have another Linda join this cyber sew. I know what you mean about the arthur hands. But, I am also going to try hand stitching them. :-D

LindaAnn (I am using my middle name because there is also at least one more Linda besides the two of us.) :-D :-D :-D

I found your blocks first Linda (of the purple background) and I thought I didn´t know you had joined us and was thrilled you had, but then I find this post saying you only decided 10 days ago and I couldn´t believe it.

Welcome to the Home of the Insane Quilters and you blocks are yummy

We may be insane, but look at the Home Lesley has started preparing for us when we also become Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered Quilters!!!

I was thinking that your plumber & his wife might really be needed at out Home. We will be having all sorts of things that require water, so it might be necessary to have Yanni hanging around. Not all staff needs to be hunks, do they? The wife might be able to help out with something else - wouldn't want to break up a couple.
