There is a railroad PO in the rr museum in Sacramento. I was lucky
enough to have the whole thing described by a docent that had worked on it. The whole thing was pretty amazing. They sorted as they moved. They did it all really fast. MAybe it is time to pull that train out of the museum and put her to work? Those old guys didn't need any stinking hi tech equipment. Will try to find a FQ that needs a new home today. Hugs, Taria Polly Esther wrote: A new reason to buy fabric (as if we ever needed a reason) - but now and then some one asks "Why did you buy that?" I don't think I've mentioned to you that every bit of my stash is fine, just fine. It looks like, though, that it will be a while before I can shop. This is just so unbelievable.

Can you imagine that the postal service is shut down because they can't sort and deliver mail without their high-tech equipment? My goodness. Can't they get some employees that can read? Just for Polly, buy a FQ of something today. Not because you need it. Not because I need it . I really and truly can not outlive my stash. What I need is a little S.E.X. If someone dares ask "What did you buy that?", tell them, "I did it for Polly". Please let me know what you bought, it will make me feel so much better. Polly |

Way ahead of you Polly! My order of FQ bundles (10 for $10) came in
the mail Saturday. Most of them look as though they will play nicely with my stash. Sally Schneider recently visited my guild and I'm now looking to use her FQ scrappy strategy. Mary |

I was wondering why I had the urge to splurge at Joann's last week...
spent $295 and some change for 20 spools of thread and a bolt (40 YARDS X 90 in.) of Warm & Natural. Leslie (dreading the credit card bill from that trip to Springfield) & The Furbabies in MO. |

And what an excellent way to spend the cash! I shall have to go 'shopping' in the stash in the loft... I think there's 3m of fabric with apples or plums on it that I was going to make a shirt out of, but it will now be quilty fabric (as I did buy it in a quilt shop!). This is an interim measure until I can do a proper S.E.X. trip after the bridesmaids are out the door (tomorrow morning!

My LQS is now closer to me after a move so I can get there more often. They
are having a sew-in tomorrow. I think I will sew at home tho and take the finished quilts to them. I don't have my travel tote assembled yet. -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948 "Bonnie NJ" wrote in message link.net... : I'll buy "Something for Polly" on Wednesday.
