Leftover Fan Squares=Kitchen Upgrade

I had one of those, too! Luckily, my first husband wanted the beast when we
split. I "reluctantly" gave in, but insisted he let me have Aunt
Mergatroide's rocking chair instead. Much better, it was a lovely and comfy
wooden rocker.

Great-Aunt Mergatroide gave us a brass lamp that is too tough to break and
too heavy to steal. Any suggestions? Polly

We used to move every couple years. Amazing how those 'uglies' were the
ones that broke in the moving process! Now that we are 'staying put' I've
developed fumble fingers.

It is also a most wonderous way to get rid of the horrible ugly towels
that Great-Aunt Mergatroide gave you.



Just what is it with Ol' Great-Aunt Mergatroide?? The one advantage to
living in earthquake country is that all the butt ugly vases, lamps and
dust catching "what were you thinking" knick knacks she gives are the
ones tragically "broken" during the rumblers. tsk,tsk,tsk

Those are great, John! Anytime you make hot pads of leftover quilt squares,
keep me in mind.

I had four too many squares left over from the Fan Quilt so here is
what I spent the morning doing. The blue one shows the back pocket and
is a companion to the single one shown.
It was speed sewing at it's best. Great fun and my wife loved them.
She put away the other pads that we had been using and hung these up
on the stove righ away without a monemts hesitation.

Thanks John.
I really would hate to think of you having a second's unoccupied time!
They really do look nice.

That's right, Idle hands make for the devils work. You don't want
retired husbands disrupting the flow of the house for wives. ;)
