Procrastination grrrr!

Last night a friend asked me to go to the Topp Twins movie with her. I should have been here sewing but I really wanted to go and see it. Well, I'm not sorry. It was fantastic.... happy, funny but sad too or maybe not sad just realistic. I have to admire these girls and how they've stood up for themselves and what they believe in. I reckon every women in the audience shed a tear when Joel's was going through chemo ... so close to home for so many.

Quilt well I'm getting nowhere fast! I keep looking at my selvege quilt and wondering how to quilt it??? Then I start procrastinating and go to bed. I have to do it though so I'm just going to have a quick look at how to quilt a log cabin block on net then get into it. Tote and Gloat is next weekend. The challenge for RCQ members is "Go Green"...It's been fun making it, I'm just not a good quilter (proven when someone told me my quilting I did at symposium was too big and sloppy) !!

Found a gorgeous pattern for a little girls quilt on allpeoplequilt.com. I get their weekly newsletter and it has some beautiful free patterns. Take a look!

Now I get the 'go green'. I forgot it was a Tote & Gloat challenge. And what is wrong with big and sloppy, I ask you!

Pffft to whoever said your quilting was not good!
EAch to their own.
I was lucky enough to go to see the Topp Twins in concert some years ago.. I LOVE THEM.

Hi Karen,

Glad that you are playing the WIF game - thank you.

I remember when the Topp Twins used to busk and perform in Queen Street about 25 years ago and the Police would have to move the big crowds on, that had gathered around to listen to them.
I heard them on National radio the other day. They are great and looking forward to going to the movie.

Hugs
Carolyn
