I like string quilts myself and I love getting a second quilt out of the fabric leftovers - what I call 2 for 1 quilts.Maryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02824125073675062176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24252963.post-15647678898661747592006-07-25T06:30:00.000-05:002006-07-25T06:30:00.000-05:00Great quilts, Linda.

I totally agree with DJ..I've never heard it put quite like that, but WE do assign all those jobs to ourselves and we can certainly un-assign them too. I have the worst time sitting without any sewing in my hands! I had to MAKE myself stop the other night so I could paint my nails. Wet nails and sewing do not mix...but without them painted I lose them all, and I like nails...<br><br>The quilts are again, just lovely! I really like the different color scheme in these!<br><br>PS: Is anyone else getting really long and strange verification words? Like 10 letters and I can hardly read half the letters!

Fall is my favorite season - and that's just what these look like.<br><br>Your husband is right - I can remember my mother telling me I needed to learn to relax.

If I hadn't (gasp!) tossed all my strings in a fit of cleaning I might be tempted to do one similar.<br><br>Doesn't it feel good to cross stuff off your list? But you know your hubby is right. I know I have the same problem with assigning tasks to myself and then getting upset because I don't get them done. So I've just quit doing it and am learning to be content with whatever I can manage to get done. Believe me there's MUCH less stress this way.Nancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00010636254992076683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24252963.post-83526193371596008712006-07-24T08:34:00.000-05:002006-07-24T08:34:00.000-05:00I like those quilts.

The second one looks good to, in a plainer way. I really like the scrappy border too, thanks for pointing it out. I never thought of using long pieces for a scrappy border. Such a good idea.Shelinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10794292846146096402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24252963.post-15411820639485810362006-07-23T21:28:00.000-05:002006-07-23T21:28:00.000-05:00Smart looking quilts!
