    This one has a lot of the quilting terms:

    ds: dear son
    mil: mother in law
    fil: father in law
    dil: daughter in law
    sil: son in law
    dgs: dear grandson
    dgd: dear granddaughter
    d9p: disappearing 9 patch
    sid: stitch in the ditch
    fmq: free motion quilting
    lqs: local quilt store
