That reminds me of a kitchen magnet my daughter bought for me this past Mother's Day. It has a woman dressed in 50's style clothes sitting on a dainty couch and the quote is, "Who says children need to eat every day?" I love it!

Speaking of kitchen magnets, I have a sewing room magnet that says, "I never make the same mistake twice ... it's more like three or four times."

Two things I learned yesterday:
1. Just because it's in my stash doesn't mean it's 100% cotton.
2. If it's not 100% cotton, a hot iron can create fascinating textures and shapes, which may not work well with your pattern.

Number 10 really stands out for me. I get upset if I am interrupted, have to stop or leave to meet someone. When I am hand quilting, nothing gets done until the quilt is finished. I cook before I start quilting and after that is gone, just snack on what I can find in the refrigerator and when the refrigerator is empty, I start going out to eat just one meal. I do keep staples on hand for breakfast, so that just leaves one other meal. Laughing at myself here.

"WHO says children need to eat every day?...... "
" There are days that are good for piecing, days for FMQ, and days for cutting - figure out which one today is !! "
"My machine hates me some days; I have no idea what I ever did to it. "
"It's easier to erase the mistake on the graft paper than to rip the quilt."
" Ever cut it twice and it is still incorrect? "
" No matter how many times you do that seam, it's still going to end up too short. "
"Gotta luv #10 housework-what housework?? "
" make sure your ruler is not upside down, or 21 becomes 12..."
" "I never make the same mistake twice ... it's more like three or four times. "
