I think you qualify as an honorary quilter Frank. You know more about
buying quilt-y gifts than the average SO. If you don't mind, I think we
should let you stay. Besides, Brenda quilts and I assume a pin with her
name on it would sit pretty close to the one for you, no?

The admin questions have slowed down a lot and really only take me away
from the tedious jobs in quilting like pin basting. There always seems
to be enough time to plan, shop, sew up the first "test" block, try out
different settings ... :-)

Yeh, well yah still got one cornfused fly fisherman in there. :-)
Anne, I just want to thank you for taking this over. How much quilting
time could you be getting in if you weren't doing such a wonderful job
administrating this thing? I'm sure it will slow down in time. Again,
great job.

That fly fisherman looks ok to us Frank : )
How is that table coming along for your wife?
Is that what you finally decided to go with for
her Christmas present?

Well, my list of "Frank's Most Wanted Xmas Gifts for Quilters" will be
out and posted to RCTQ this weekend. I may do the table, we'll see.
Priorities right now go to preparing for Thanksgiving (I cook), an
international fly tying symposium this Saturday in New Jersey, working
at the Baltimore Ravens football game for my daughter's high school
marching band fundraiser on Sunday, spackling and painting the wall in
the living room Saturday night, baking 10 dozen oatmeal/chocolate chip
cookies Friday for a craft sale on Saturday, catsitting the neighbors'
fuzzy bits for the week, all whilst designing a cryptographically
secure network for up to 5 million users (due the week after
Thanksgiving). No wonder Brenda and daughter are leaving town Friday.
They don't want to be around when I implode.

Oh, a fellow marching band parent! What does she play? My son is now in
college and if you click on my pin on Frapper, you will see a picture of him
and his saxophone in full Lock Haven University regalia!

Good for her! Bret is currently an English and Music major. He loves his
saxophones - has one of every flavor except baritone, which he played for a
while in high school. He was on the recruiting poster for the jazz
ensemble and combo this year - and I'm still begging for a copy of it!!
Being in marching band was a real advantage at his school - he was allowed
to move in to his dorm a week early for band camp. It was so much calmer,
and the other band members helped him move in. Plus he had instant friends.
I don't know if you're familiar with the band fraternity, Kappa Kappa Psi,
or sorority, Tau Beta Sigma, but he's had a lot of good experiences there
too. They are "honorary" fraternities - no frat house involved (!) and for
some reason both boys and girls are accepted into either one. Yes, girls in
the fraternity and sometimes boys in the sorority! I have not been able to
figure this out yet, but it seems to work for them, and they do service
projects together.

Bret's high school band was non-competing, but a pretty good band anyway.
Good luck to her this weekend!

My Frappr pinpoint marker is scarily close to my home. I mean, if
you know the first and second line of my address from the RCTQ
directory, and you have this map, you very well *could* plan stash
raid. Time to take that nice photo of my stash cupboard off the
internet, methinks.
