Besides, I think the "quilt police" should all be arrested and forced to come quilt for me in my program - They'd realy need a major attitude adjustment!

all I can think of is that plastic stuff that is fused to fabric to make raincoats, etc. I can't imagine using that for patchwork. It takes all kinds to make the world go round. :lol:

Oh that is such a good idea. No need to have the hot pads that seem to shimmy all over the table after you start passing the food!

My mom crocheted tons of tablecloths and I have no idea what happened to them after she passed -- probably given to Good Will. Granof6 Please, please post a picture.

O.K. I have this grande damme all figured out. She has plastic on the furniture, she never use the china or the silver, her silk undies are being saved for something that hasn't happened and probably won't. She uses old towels and old sheets because the good ones might show wear, and if she has a quilt she probably won't use it either. Just too sad to go through life saving everything for someday, and hilarious that she would try to foist her weirdo ideas off on you![/quote]

AND she probably never has friends over to her house because they might spill something or mess something up. What a lonely existence!
