I have resisted Quilt Fads (Like Jelly Roll Quilts etc) but the Temperature Quilt has sparked my Interest and I thought I would give it a go. So from January One I have been taking note of the High and Low Daily Temperatures -
So with all my things around me I settled down at my work table . . .
Oooooh! (Says newly retired DH) seeing you have your machine up - Would you take up my new trousers. And while you are at it . . .
How many Trousers are there?
One needing Hems and Three that need Pocket repairs.
(8 pockets in total)
You are Kidding?
No?
How does this happen?
Well - patching was not an option - And my valuable Quilting time went 'out the window' when I picked up the seam-ripper.
As I handed them back to him I only had TWO things to say...
1. You owe me BIG time.
and -
2. You are VERY lucky I did not use "Itty Bitty Kitty" Fabric in there!
Now that the mending is done, I'm looking forward to seeing how you tackle the temperature quilt!
ReplyDeleteHahaha I swear I do more mending or hemming or my dad's clothes than I do my own. But I cringe at the idea of him paying $20 or so for a job that I can generally do better.
ReplyDeleteThere have been a couple of times that the rips weren't repairable, so I absconded with the fabric with plans to make a patchwork tote bag for me to take to work. So I suppose it's not too bad a trade.
