Mine is triggered by the barometer, extreme fatigue, or high fibro pain.
Any of the above. I only rarely get the seasick feeling. I usually do well if I back off the multi-tasks of the day and focus on one thing. I focus well on details of just one job. Usually quilting. I block out everything else, including most of the pain. Karen, Queen of Squishies -- My reply address is scrambled. Please change my address to hicall80 at earthlink dot net |

Well, wish me luck and patience ! My 11 yr. old son asked me to teach him to quilt yesterday. We were watching the last 20 min of Fons and Porters quilt show . They were making a flannel quilt where the seams show and you clip the seams so they curl..... Out pops the "mom, will you teach me how to make a quilt like that ?" Well... with no daughters to teach and a son asking to be taught, how can you say no? So I am off to buy bright solids and wacky print flannel. -- Tina Brockport, NY *~*v*~*v*~*v*~*v*~* |

My son (10) asked the same out of the blue the other day. I wasn't even
working on one or watching tv. Go figure. So, I cut 4 5" squares and he sewed them together. Now he wants to keep adding squares. I'm afraid of how large this quilt will end up! I tried to explain the concept of contrast helping the squares show up, but no, he wanted those fabrics together. That's ok. It'll be great once he gets all the blocks together. Whenever that will be. So, here I am trying to keep the house clean in case someone calls to look at it, but have fabrics and threads flung far and wide as he chooses what to put in his quilt. I still have the bag of fabrics people squished him with when he was in the hospital last year. So I'll see where I packed that away (trying to make my sewing room look uncluttered) and let him have at those. -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter....

I anticipate this flannel quilt being one he drags around from chair ,to couch, to bed....

Dreaming in Color - was - What Quilt Scares You? (Diana=A0Curtis) My DH sometimes dreams in movie sequences, both as director and actor in the scene, and he has been able to 'reshoot' scenes that didnt go the way he wanted them to. --- Hey! I do this, too! And if the 'actors' go through too many re-takes, I often wake up out of sheer frustration. Wanna-Be Director, obviously. Cea |
