Funny thing is, because I was facing them when learning, I often do things left handed when I'm strongly right handed, because that's what I saw when I watched. It never dawned on any of them that I was doing it left handed until someone noticed one day. Then it was set into my head and too late to change. Doesn't matter anyway, looks the same.

I make what's called "cheater" quilts, using patchwork patterned fabric or something with a strong set pattern that I then embroider batting to the back of following the pattern. Depending upon who's getting it, what state they live in and how cold it gets, I may use two layers of batting or only one.<br />Not long ago, one of our sisters and I were reminiscing about when the ladies in the old days had different window coverings and bed coverings for summer and winter. Winter's was usually heavy chenille bedspreads with brocade or velvet drapes to keep out winter cold; summer was often seersucker bedspreads with cotton curtains to let breezes flow through. Wonder when all that stopped. Probably when central air and heat came into fashion, cause it was a good idea.<br />God bless.<br />RB<br /><><<br />RBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13053380234618898848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2264863019487640784.post-85064832928692972942015-08-05T08:17:59.162-07:002015-08-05T08:17:59.162-07:00Patricia, we keep dishes in the camper, along with...Patricia, we keep dishes in the camper, along with two dish tubs and dish soap.

I've been looking at some of the 'extras' around here, trying to decide what will go where! <br />I'd like quilts in the camper-- Honey told me he wanted to use paper-plates in the camper the other day. <br />JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU KNOW SOMEONE! I'm not for paper in the camper. We won't need many dishes as it will only be the two of us, Most of the time. I think some pretty, cheap, thrifted dishes are in order. ;) <br />Your son went through Dallas on his flight home... ? <br />I wasn't aware. I'm just getting here to catch up had I known...I'd of waved at every plane that flew over! ;) <br />Wishing you more tomatoes...!!! <br />Patricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.com
