Was in JoAnns a few days ago just looking, wasting time...testing out
the new glasses (definite difference, but NO headaches!!) and I saw the
most disgusting thing they could ever put in front of a
quilter......pre-pieced quilt blocks!! Yep, the entire block put
together already, about $5 per block. All you need to do is buy however
many you need for your desired size, stitche them together into
rows/columns and add the batting/backing

I was glad, however to notice I wasn't the only one disgusted...a lady
and her daughter were in the store looking for fabric for a halloween
costume, and when Mom saw them, she loudly said, "You've got to be
kidding me!!"

Argh!!

Well, maybe this is the way to get my Mother into quilting...who knows?
Mom2, on the other hand, is taking the plunge and
cutting/piecing/birthing her very first quilt as they stay safe in NC
while the hurricanes swamp their area of Florida

Larisa, disgusted, totally disgusted
