Wednesday

Both of these are marvelous.

OK - I read a lot of yoga.  I have a complete library of yoga books, some of which I read from start to finish over and over.   I visit yoga sites and read Yoga Journal.  I do my morning sadhana and am getting back to classes after a long break for the holidays.  And yes, I over-do many things that interest me, including yoga.

And this is makes me laugh out loud (several times):


Now--who's going to make one about S*** Quilters Say?  What creative comedian out there can come up with one for fabric addicts, stitchers, and/or crafters.    I mean, for example:

a)  I just counted my WIPs.  Will I live long enough to finish them?
b) Hmmm, auditioning fabrics.  Do you think this hot pink will pop or what?
c)  I'm in heaven;  the kids are back in school, I'm still in my pajamas, and  I'm wearing my      
     Bernina out!
d)  What the...?  You mean, I'm gonna have to rip out all this stitching?
e)  I've got a coupon for Jo Ann's and it's burning a hole in my pocket!
f)  I can't find my rotary cutter.  I JUST had it.
g)  Call the doctor!  I just sewed my finger on the machine!
h) Of course, we don't drink at quilting retreats!  Well, maybe a little wine with dinner....
i)  I'm meandering.

Can you think of any?

Here's a new one for me:  "Sh**, I stabbed my palm with my embroidery scissors!"

 Very sharp embroidery scissors.  Bled and bled and still hurts!  No, I'm not explaining how it happened, but it was an impressive example of hand-eye coordination...or not.  No blood on the prayer flag, thank goodness.

The first stitch for Take a Stitch Tuesday is the fly stitch, and Rian asked what it looked like.

Here is the basic fly stitch (via Sharon's Stitch Dictionary).  An extremely useful and versatile stitch!

Have a great day, y'all!
