    anastasia-- pictures are always good! and don't be hard on elisabrat-- she was VERY good, for her! we all played nicely, and we are so good at stitching up things, those cuts and bruises won't even show in a month or two. right, guys? we were very, very good! that's my story....

    Ok.. ladies and germs.. for your viewing pleasure.. from my stash o' books and mags to your eyeholes, I bring you, 88 pieces of inspiration.

    http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17746.html

    Now, I KNOW I have a magazine here somewhere that has a log cabin wreath. But my kitten has a magazine fetish and I had to pull one of the magazines out from under the couch, so I think the one with the wreath is also in there.

    Also, Norash emailed me this adorable table runner pattern awhile back

    http://www.conniekresin.com/2011/12/...-tutorial.html

    So.. inspiration galore! Don't pass out from the possibilities.

    While I was doing this, I came to the realization that maybe I should have asked if people celebrate Hanukkah or Christmas or anything... What do you think? Does it matter?

    I was good, honest, (tiny fingers a bit crossed while my hands are accidentally behind my back).. GOOD FOR ME what are you implying Nancia? its ok I will forget in short order anyways so its all good now that I passed you guys who only have sometimers up I am realizing moretimers is ok too.. moretimes than not I forget something. I cant even remember the good old sometimers days sometimes I remember stuff sometimes I don't. I rely on my special pals to keep me up on what I need to be remembering. My DH is very good at not saying I TOLD YOU OR YOU ALREADY TOLD ME he just repeats what i ask for say the 10th time and its a good gentle reminder. I love him. Same with my pals. I am so fortunate. (now onto better things like poking fun at..).

    I am thinking of using the deck the wall pattern from American Patchwork and Quilting mag Dec 2012. But obviously switching out Christmas colors I just like the design lay out and it looks like its as simple as they say it is.. for me that is always a challenge.. now I need colors for my theme.. and a center piece to go with the theme other than that I am all set (or not at all depending on the hour). Of course I have this cute blue cat fabric that would go great with so many things.. saving that for my special friends. Be scared. Be very scared. Its the ugliest fabric in America gifted to me. Blue cats.. with ties on oh joy! promise if your good to me I wont use it in your table runner (Nancia watching you.. beware be very very worried) last jaba honey you crawling to the post office to return all those runners could make good video footage, is americas funniest videos around still? split the pot with you. oh and wear those support hose and your good clarks sneakers, a hair net would be a good added touch.

    We have a great list and its only getting better and bigger!

    I see I must have paralyzed everyone with boatloads of inspiration. Either that or they are off jumping the gun and working on them already. But.. I don't like the sound of crickets.

    We're up to 20 now. YAY! Where's my marketing crew? Get back to work!

    Hello, I am so mad! spitting nails kinda mad! Oh well does me not one bit of good to be that mad! But my Wonderful sweet kind loving ABSENT MINDED husband left my computer and my Kindle Fire in Laguna Niguel, where we have been the last 3 days painting! I really love working with him but not under this kind of stress! So now I have no way to stay in touch with you all until next Tuesday! Unless my Son or DIL lets me sneak onto their LAP TOP and post a quick hello!

    Right now I am on hubbys computer that is as old and slow as he is! Hehe, I am being so mean, so sorry~ I really love him but wish he would keep his hands off my gadgets. He took the Computer case out of the pick up and put it in the Garage of the house we are painting, thought it would be safer! But he forgot to tell me he did that. So when we got home tonight I asked him where it was!!!! I know I know get over it! I will I will, just have to vent! btw my pickup has a bed cover on it, no one would have bothered it where it was!

    So the Marathon is Sunday! Nov 4th... I am getting excited and also excited about seeing my Son, DIL and Grandson! I am sad that Hubby had problems with his crew so will miss it! he will have to be back in Laguna Niguel Painting! I told him I would give up the run but he is really a sweetheart and knows that all the training it would suck to miss it! So I have to take the train to my Son's house and he will take me to the race! It is such a pain having so much going on right now, but I know he really needs the pickup to work and I am happy to ride the train, wish I had my Kindle though!

    OK My Whiny self is going to go check out some other places on the boards. I will be heading north to Fresno area on Wednesday so until then I get to use this old dinosaur and do it happily, with no whiny noises... well maybe just a few~

    I am glad I have a good long time to get this swap done, I will need the rest! My Son says he will take a picture of me AFTER I run 26.2 miles! I look really old at the end of my race!

We know you will complete the race and time only matters to those who care so keep a nice slow pace, so you dont get sick again, its never as much fun the second time as the first and I think you didnt enjoy much but thehot toddys the first round. Jaba, could you get her a hot toddy so she sees she doesnt need to be sick to get one?

    Sorry Elisabrat, you'll still be our naughty girl, no matter how many people join. And don't think you're fooling anyone with this silent music hour stuff - we know what you're doing while you're "da da da daaa da daddada, etc-ing". Now put down the mouse and go sew.
