Two Question Tuesday - 8/9/11

Two Question Tuesday – 8/9/11

Here's the deal - I really liked Mama M.'s Five Question Friday - but that's just too many questions for me.  So I'm going to do my version - and without the linky thingy.

I'll ask two questions and then give you my answers.  If you want to play - you can give me your answers in the comment section.  If you have a blog and would rather answer them there - just leave a link to your blog instead. I don't know how to do the "Linky" thing like Mama M. yet - and to be honest - I would rather sew than find out - so I'll do it this way until I figure it out.
==========

Two questions for you this Tuesday -

1.  What is the FIRST thing you remember sewing?

2.  Did you know that Saturday – August 13 – is International Left-Handers Day?

==========

1.  What is the FIRST thing you remember sewing?
The FIRST think I remember sewing was a pink tablecloth and set of four napkins in 7th Grade – Home Ec Class.  I did a Quilt Journal post about it on Sunday – here - check it out.


2.  Did you know that Saturday – August 13 – is International Left-Handers Day?
Yup.  (These answers are easy when it’s you who makes up the questions!  ;))

In fact – I said last Saturday – here - that I thought that we should have our very own –

First Annual International LEFT-HANDED Quilters Anonymous Online Quilt Show.

Say that three times fast!

And I told you all about it again yesterday – here.  Go check it out - and let me know what you think.

You guys can write up your post for the quilt show while I try to figure out how we can all link up.

Should be fun.

Oh – and it’s going to be my 150th post –

and also because I probably have to bribe you guys to participate – 

I MAY even do a giveaway – 

forgot to tell you about that!

MAYBE a “secret” door prize for “signing in” on Saturday!

The prize is a “secret” – but I give away good stuff - just ask Rose or KatieM!!

Or MAYBE NOT – you’ll just have to wait and see!

OK - your turn.



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

Design Wall Monday - 8/08/11

Design Wall Monday - 8/08/11


I'm still playing with Bonnie Hunter's pattern - Scrappy Trip Around the World -  

So - 

“SCRAPPY TRIPPING” is still on my wall today - 

Saturday it looked like too many “lights” were bunched up in the top right corner –

So - I pretty much put it back the way it was before –

And then the mail lady brought me some “stuff” -

After I wash and press it –
I can add it to some of the other “stuff” I have to do –

YAY for “stuff”!!

I have always said that quilting keeps me out of bars at night.  ;))

And that there is ALWAYS more than one way to do something!

And YES - I can ALWAYS learn something new!

My motto should be - "Show me - show me how YOU do it!!"
 
And don’t forget to come back on Saturday – August 13 – 

I need your help with our  –

First Annual International LEFT-HANDED Quilters Anonymous Online Quilt Show.

I told you all about it – here.  Go check it out - and let me know what you think.

You guys can write up your post for the quilt show while I try to figure out how we can all link up.

Talk to you later – gotta go – gotta sew -
