Managed to quilt 2 blocks on a quilt and that was it for my effort yesterday. I crocheted in front of Downton Abbey last night. And Who Says you can't cook, looks like you were on a roll to me. We have run out of tissues as well, I normally have at least 3 massive boxes in reserve but they are all gone.seabreezequiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05210564993790938890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-29046849480150594032012-06-04T05:47:59.817+09:302012-06-04T05:47:59.817+09:30Some days are just weird!
