Disqualified!

There I was...

Sewing REALLY big rings onto a sheet.

(This is a big flag for a children's program at church.)

I was dreaming about OLYMPICS.

Sewing Olympics.

I guess that's what a quilt show is...

But....

 there's no gold medal for the FASTEST quilter..

Is there??

That's the one I would go for!!!

LOL!!!

I had the cotton sheet on hand...

but had to buy the felt.

I used a BIG, big serving bowl to get the ring size!

Glad I HAD THAT!!!

Oh boy, I was feeling good about finishing this up!

I was feeling like the FASTEST quilter in the land!!!

I even found some thread around here that matched the colors!

Maybe there's an award for that too???

  ;)

I was having fun in dreamland...

When....

ZIP!!!

I cut the bottom off too SHORT!!!!

UGh!

Double Ugh!!!

If you were my neighbor you would have heard me CRY!!!

:0

Guess I'll be doing some UN sewing NEXT!!!

"Disqualified!!!"

I can hear the announcer NOW!!!

:)

flag.

One of the only "quilt-worthy" things I did today was add

a flag to my little school house.

There's a lot more to life than quilting...right? Right.

It was good to do that little bit.

That tiny bit of creative energy

kept me a little more sane.

I'm thankful today that I have fabric.

Lots of fabric.

I was able to locate the red stripe and

the blue....sort-of-star-polka-dot piece.

Yeah! for a fabric stash!!!

But....

I've got another kind of stash that's becoming a problem.

Does anyone else have these wonderful quilting magazines?

They are filled with bright pictures,

patterns,

new fabric lines,

articles about quilt related topics,

advertisements for every quilty thing!!!

I. LOVE. THEM.

But....

They accumulate....

unbelievably fast!!!

Especially when quilt guild meetings offer older ones

frequently for 25 cents apiece!

Hmmmm!

Yes. I've got a mighty big problem.
The first step is to admit you've got a problem.

o.k.

I've got a problem.

Then there's the books.

I don't think there's a meeting for this kind of problem...

is there???
