Blog Warning / Award

Kim West of A Peach In Stitches has made a new
Hazard to My Stash Award and I am a proud first round recipient. Thank you Kim.




I guess all the time I play in EQ is enjoyable to all.

So we're supposed to nominate other blogs that are Hazardous to our stashes,

I find Bonnie of Quiltville very hazardous

Nanette is another one-

Then there is San
and lastly there is Finn.
Finn has been having a challenge to get UFO's finished for New Years and I want to make some of the ones that she has sitting around waiting for finishes.
Will we ever all live long enough to make all the quilts/ projects on our lists????
So if you like- you can use the button to nominate your own favorites. Some of mine we nominated by Kim.

Snicker, Snicker

You Are Blackmail

You are a good detective. You have dirt on everyone you know. And instead of gossiping, you sit on information that may be useful to you someday. You love power games. Especially if (and pretty much only if) you have the upper hand. You are brilliant and calculating. No one knows what you have in store!

What Felony Are You?

What did you watch????

FUN IDEA !!!
How many shows can we come up with that we USED to watch that are no longer on TV? (Every now and then maybe..)
Add one and keep going.
This should be fun and jog our memories. No repeats on the shows
please.
