MY MAMA ALWAYS WARNED ME {OPERATION LOW VOLUME/ BEIGE QUILT CONTINUES}

When you live in a smallish town

 (population approximately 40,000),

you know just about everybody.

The other day,

I was gossiping with one of the bank customers (who happens to be a quilter)

and she asked me about my latest project.

I told her about the puppy birthday present, the beige sofa, & the challenge.
(You can read about the puppy HERE)

Then she said,

"Darlin', you need to QUILT AS YOU GO! Ya'll be done in a jiffy!"

Well it got me thinking & then researching.

 I remembered the deadline...the puppy is coming this weekend.

Then I remembered that 

my Mama, who is a petite little thing, 

always told me to never change anything

right before

a deadline or something important.

"Stick to what you know!"

For example,

 two weeks before my junior prom,

I had the brilliant idea

that I wanted to change my hairstyle

(which really meant bigger hair and more bangs).

My Mama told me not to do it,

but my stubbornness won

and the day of the prom was my WORST hair day E-V-E-R!

Totally flat hair!

Well I should have learned my lesson,

but 

when I got home,

I busted out the batting and began cutting AGAIN for the 3rd time this week

and basting all 160 squares:

and quilting them:

Right now,

I'm thinking that I should have listened to Mama!

Until Next Time...Happy Quilting
