This is a public site and more importantly, there are ladies present.........lol. Seriously though, I will let you into a few secrets soon.

Let's just say we're all focused clearly on one thing - beautiful machine embroidery - and that the details USUALLY follow.

It turned out to be a great day, love the new fabric I purchased. Once I can manage my new overlocker, it will be used with future embroidery projects The one I bought is self threading, has extra feet attachments for fancy stiches. Often I catch my Dh playing with the self threading button, spitting out lots of cotton.

Lol! and dennis - are you keeping a list? cuz we got stories!

Curious minds want to know what hilarious things you've been up to, also. My hubby always gives me that look, and we both laugh. I have spent literally hours looking for something that was lost to only find it when I stopped looking!

I'll have to remember that one for the next time HB asks..lol Marian

Yes, Mrs. Jrob, I do believe that the principle of which you speak is an internationally recognised system more commonly known as the 'Wile of the Female Psyche.'

Wile: 1. trickery, cunning, or craftiness. 2. an artful or seductive trick or ploy. 3. to lure, beguile, or entice.

Please convey to Mr. Mrob that he does not stand alone. The self-same ploy is used by Imelda Marcos (aka., my dear wife) when she comes back from shopping for shoes in the sales, informing me that by buying two pairs of shoes she has saved us twice the amount of money. I have sought the logic of this argument for many a year but have now given up.

Pure as the driven snow, me........................lol
