I'm so excited about this quilt. I can't wait to finish it... I now have to miter the corners like this above on the right... Maybe it can be my Inauguration night finish project... like the Obama quilt that I made on Election night...!!
I'm it!
I've been tagged by Sharon of indigothreads! So, I am supposed to tell 6 random or quirky things about myself...
hmmm, I've already said motorcycles so that doesn't count. Here it goes, I hope this provides as much laughter as it did here, as I had help form the peanut gallery pointing out all my quirks...

1. I LOVE LOVE LOVE, Big Band Music & Western Films. I know that's two, but I thought it was a little lame, so ya got two.
and
2. Its Hard to admit, I love American Idol. SORRY!, I can't help it. Make someone's life change, doing something they love? Come on... what's not to love. (o.k, and Oprah) (But not Martha Stewart...that's a whole other story)
3. I HUGELY DISLIKE, when people touch the back of my hands. Kristin at Gumdrops knows the story... Its gory. It took me at least 25 years for me to figure out why...
4. If ANYONE recommends a book to me to read. I will never read it. There's to much pressure on me to READ the book, and I can't focus on it. SORRY! to everyone who has ever given me a book. I have to search and search for books that catch my attention enough to want to read them...
5. I am Five years older than my Stepson, and my Husband is FIVE years younger than my mother! ha! top that! ha ha ha! its cool! And we all get along! Hence my being a grandma, at 38...(stepson has a 4(almost 5) year old)
Speaking numbers, there is 30 years between me and my mother, and thirty years between me and daughter, and 30 years between my husband and his son.(my step son)
So if your good with numbers, you can figure that one out!
6. hmmm. well.
I have really big feet. No, really! HUGE.
I used to have to order shoes from London, or send someone to go shoe shopping if I wasn't able top get there, before they were online....
But now, there are more stores in the US that carry LARGE size shoes...

I'll have to go check out the other blogs...
And what do you mean motorcycles don't count????
Hugs, C
The quilt top is PERFECT for inauguration night! It's a fabulous top! Funny facts about you! :) And some new fun blogs to check out.
ReplyDeleteI love Westerns also, nothing like a Saturday afternoon, some hand quilting and a good Western on the tv.
ReplyDeleteI think you were linked on another blog I read, so I took a peek and I love your quilts! I'll work on my quirky list. Nice to meet you...
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is spectacular!
ReplyDeleteI was completely against American Idol until last season when I watched an episode with Jake. I was hooked. So hooked! I have huge dislike for anything Martha Stewart.
I just keep finding out more and more things to like about you!
I have to say that I have you beat on being a young grandma. MY DH is 43, I'm 34, my mom and dad are turning 60. My step daughter is 24 and is marrying a 30 year old who has a 6 year old daughter in March.
