Jolo, may the culprit who took your quilts get their just reward. What a horrible thing, and especially if you know the person.

Moonrise, I loved your kitty story and pictures. I also love the way your scrappy is coming together. Like Anngel Anne I heard the phrase crumbs but was not sure what they were. May have to give that one a try.

Dotcomdtem, I really like the phrase making fabric.

Hope to have pictures of my progress in a couple days.

at guild last month our speak said she used her rotary cutter & made confetti with the little scraps & then did the trick of laying the netting over it & stitching. Sometimes she sews around the outside edges & leaves the inner scraps loose & uses this as a greeting card.

Me, too! I could never wear a jumpsuit--painful!

Ours were navy blue and I had a long torso too, so I did hate those things. I don't remember ironing them but probably did because everything was ironed in those days. Or probably my mom did, in the morning as I was getting ready for the bus. Hmmm...my mind has gone wandering.

I wore those blue one piece suits too with white socks and white gym shoes. Ours was the medium blue, and a portion of our grade was to have them kept perfectly clean, and pressed. Our white socks and white shoes had to be kept white at all times. We did have a big pool there, and gym with the gymnastic type things hanging around from ceilings, and the horses we had to jump over. Does bring back memories. lol...

Thanks mama Hen. Can anyone tell me how to put a quote or verse that automatically goes on your postings?

reeskyler- I had the blue striped one, 'cept mine was gold and white.
I was about 80lbs and about 4'-5" I looks quirky in it, not to mention,
I came from Catholic school and had no idea how to play gym stuff.
