Wanna hear what I bought today???? Not too profitable except for one thing. I got a kingsize white bedspread to embroider. Plus, it had all the thread with it too. When I got it home and unfolded it I discovered that about a third of it has already been done and done beautifully! I can't wait to get started on finishing it. It has birds in the center and a flowered border. The price of this great find???? $1.00 !!! That's right, only one dollar!!! I'm happy now.

great find, awesome! we would love to see a photo
There's been several here lately--mostly in the last couple of weeks, say maybe three. Anyway, I'm over it. I just hope it stops. Chit chat should be for exactly that.

I went garage saleing too today. My find was two pillowcases for a quarter each and they were hand quilted and looked to be old. I love old quiltie things. I was so proud when I brought them home. Good find Raptureready.
I notice when posts are deleted also but I am also thankful this board is here for me. I will follow their rules, and try not to take it personally. I need and like this board. It's their board and we are guests here. Like you, I will simply go out if it is something I think will escalate. There are so many personalities to deal with on here. I say 99% good and the other 1%, sorry...

I use another site that is moderated, and I find that they leave the thread title, and the reason for the removal on for about week eg Racial Vilification, Breach of Forum Rules, Just Plain Rude, Innappropriate, Foul Language etc, I think that this is helpful as it reminds people of how the forum/board works.
