She and her co-workers are putting together a Thanksgiving Basket for family of five. My daughter wanted the family to have something nice for the table. I'm quilting them now and had to piece the backing. What I do for my kid and won't do for myself!!!!<BR/><BR/>Have people always been afraid of evolution?

Thank goodness for HGTV--it is getting me through the piecing and machine stitch in the ditch tedium. I only make baby quilts for VERY special people.<BR/><BR/>I had not heard about the bracelet controversy--no little girls in my house, but I may buy some just to show support!

I saw a piece on-line about the Kansas attempt to teach an alternative theory to evolution and make it a law. I think that we should send someone there and ask for their statehood back.It boggles the mind. Some days you can't make up how stupid people are.

Along with some other things - they have some wonderful books.<BR/><BR/>This one looks perfect for my 9 year old:<BR/><A HREF="http://store.americangirl.com/pls/ag/AG_pagestyle?catid=375861&groupid=51662" REL="nofollow"> The Care and Keeeping of You</A><BR/><BR/><BR/>As an avid piecer I agree with you - matching points and seems and using patterns and rulers is boring and tedious. <BR/><BR/>Fortunately I can piece and not do any of those things!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
