i hope o Sunday I can garden and get things trimmed ... leaves pulled out... it's raining today

Deb I'm so enjoying my green and yellow tea towels... they just make my kitchen scream spring!

[Morningcoffeegal]

Renea-love the coasters and towels!! Nicely done.

Thank you! Now I am onto making 3 towels for myself using Pats Jam Jar patterns, ohhhhhhhhhh so cute!

Pat I am so envious of you being out in your garden! Still lots of snow on the ground here in PA, I don't think it will ever go away!!!! Please come and take some, anyone? It's Free!!!!!!!!

Just as I think I have heard it all, I got a customer who dropped off some stuff to be altered.  She was asking me if I would be able to make something for one of her relatives because he was having a hard time finding someone to make this thing he wants. So me being curious andwho loves a good challenge said sure! No Problem! What is it?

Are yah all sitting down.............you'll need to be sitting down for this! ROFL I still can't stop laughing!

 Let me give you some background on these people... a whole big group of friends, family & co-workers in thier 50-60's are going on a cruise in April. Now this particular gentlemen made a bet with some co-workers who are also going on this cruise that he would wear a man-thong! Yours truely has been hired to make this thong, this gentlemen called me last night to make sure I am up to the challenge! LOL He already bought the fabric which is sheepskin (having visions of Tarzan beating his chest!) ROFL, ROFL, ROFL!!!

Thinking to myself this A.M. oh what and the world do I even charge this man for this sheepskin thong, keeping in mind he has already bought the sheepskin? Also thinking or invisioning his fittings! Not sure when this gentlemen comes to my home I will be able to compose myself in a professional manner! So ladies what do I charge him? LOL

Wondering if he will let me take a picture of him modeling my creation! ROFL

[Sharon]

For such a job I'd charge by the hr not the inch!

[KarenInTucson]

Right on Sharon!!  I think at least $50 and a video!!!!!

[Pat]

Video is a MUST.. on Youtube!!!!   Holy COW!!!!

remind me NEVER to be THAT curious!

[KarenInTucson]

and ALWAYS ask "what" before you say "Yes"   

[Sharon]

That should be in the life lessons handbook. what before Yes!

[Morningcoffeegal]

For such a job I'd charge by the hr not the inch!

OMGoodness! Now I really fell off my chair!!!!!!! ROFL  Curiosity didn't kill me but trying to keep a straight face will! ROFL

[Primdec]

OMG!  That is too funny a man thong! YouTube is a must.  LOL

[Lynn Montana]

I'm excited!  i got the tea towels I ordered in the mail today! Now I can get busy!

[Wendy in MT]

Alright, ladies ... I came into forum and last post I see is "man thong" and "charge by the inch" and    OOOOHHHHH boy did I need to read through the forum to get the whole story!  ROFL!!!  Thank you for the laugh!

After my day of 'unsewing' the other day, I've now finished my sister's Strata Star table topper (can be seen on facebook under Wendy Finlay's photos) which I started Wednesday night, worked on Thursday  night and finished this morning. whew!   I also worked on the project that I had to continually rip apart, but the squares are ready to be put together now.  AND .... I made two pillowcases for my daughters this afternoon they've been asking me for since we purchased the material before Halloween.  

Now ... I'm going to head in to wash my tea towels so I can get my appliques on them and finish my coasters.  I'm looking forward to this task and don't feel so pressured now .... except as I typed this I just realized I have another birthday present to make for this week, so guess I better get off the computer and back to work  

Can always watch FB and forums while I work, right?!? Happy evening all!

[Wendy in MT]
