    Sad quilt

    I saw a sad quilt this morning. We picked up our processed deer meat from a Mennonite butcher. DH told me to look out the door window. (I was expecting a cute dog--love Border Collies) All crumpled up by another door on the cement porch was an old quilt. I didn't see any rips or...

    New quilting idea for me

    I checked out a book from the library: "Adventures with Leaders & Enders-Make More Quilts in Less Time!" by Bonnie K. Hunter. Instead of using a folded scrap to sew on and off at the beginning or ending of a line of chain piecing, cut two squares accurately (I chose 2 1/2") facing each other...

    Who watches the History Channel?

    History is so interesting. This week has been about WWI. Even though I have read/seen history on TV, there is always something that I learn. What are your history favorites? Many years ago there was Victory at Sea about WWII. Richard Rodgers wrote the music--very stirring music. It...

    Salman Khan, learning videos

    Does anyone know or have experience with these videos? I need to read more about them, but Bill Gates has very positive things to say about the videos. It is non-profit according to what I read. I saw a segment on TV with a math class and those kids were amazing and enthusiastic. We...

    Do you have to collect your state's sales tax on yard sales?

    My son told me yesterday that where he lives (AL) there's talk of making people having yard sales collect taxes. I'm sure governments, city, state, and federal, lie awake at night because underground bartering and personal sales escape tax collection. IMO, tax has already been paid on new...

    Tell me about your grandmother (or grandfather)

    The older I become, the more I think of my grandmother. Growing up I had mixed emotions about her. Now I remember how unique she was for her time. She ran a boarding house during the '40s, mostly young single men. Usually she knew their parents and was more like a house mother to them...

    What is your definition of "needs" and "wants"

    Dunkopf and I seem to have a friendly disagreement of the definition of "needs" and "wants." If you think there is the remotest possibility of another "Great Depression," what is your definition? IMO, the politicians and most Americans do not believe we can slip into a Depression. In...

    Anyone making a child's tea towel apron?

    My neighbor went on the internet and found an easy pattern and made the cutest aprons for her two grandchildren. The five year old can't do anything for her mother without wearing the apron. So cute!

    If you won a million $ lottery, what would you buy for yourself?

    After family and charity, how would you change your lifestyle? For me, I would still live modestly but I would love a small Arts & Crafts or Victorian house with beautiful woodwork. I would also love a greenhouse--Victorian--but I bet I would not spend the bucks. A good quality stainless...
