Girls Just Want to Have Fun!

Sometimes folks wonder what a quilt Shoppe owner could possibly buy at Quilt Show. Well, I can't speak for them all but as for me...well, I just have to tell you that I

go to quilt shows for the socks, LOL! Here's one of the THREE pairs I picked up at A Quilter's Gathering...LOL! I'm so bad!
Don't you just love goofy socks? When I wear goofy socks it's like I have a secret that no one knows. I am no longer "MA'AM", I'm just "Me". I don't care if they don't match my clothes, they are hidden for only me to see. They need not be conservative, serious or businesslike; they can be as silly as my PJ's and no one will ever know.
If you don't own a pair of goofy socks, well, it's time you get some. You will be amazed at how happy your heart will be . I bet you'll shed ten years...sorry, weight loss is not one of the benefits but you might feel energized too with the added spring in your step! Look for these at your next quilt show, LOL!. =)

A Quilter's Gathering

The lovely Ms. Joanna invited me to join her on her annual trip to A Quilter's Gathering. I being sooo hard to persuade, agreed on making this treacherous journey that took us about five minutes from the Pumpkin Patch to the Radisson in Nashua, NH. LOL! Here I am, all sad to be among the quilts on exhibit...this was one of the three non-purple ones...LOL!

These were the only two quilts that I wanted to take home... maybe because they were the only ones that I could dream of making? Maybe! LOL! The things we saw, OMG! I tell you, nothing is as demoralizing to a beginner than going to a quilt show with row after row of quilts that you know you will never be good enough to make. UGH...it was a sad day...but then there were these two cuties; so I put them on my bucket list. =)
