You and I share a fine quality.
If I just HAVE to get out when the weather is cold, I always wear my jammie bottoms under my sweats. Back at home, I shed the sweats and get back to sewing....

I'm ashamed to admit that - I joined a BOM and continue to pick up the blocks even though I have not finished number 1 yet. You are suppose to finish them and then get the next one.

I am ashamed to admit that I will sometimmes, (okay, almost always) ignore the phone when I'm quilting, even if it's one of my daughters calling, I let them leave a message. Sew...... no one is telling our secrets, right?
