Default New acronym for us to use -- PIGS

I just found a new acronym (is taht spelled right?) that we can use.
I'll tell you, this totally described many of my projects. The
acronym is PIGS -- Projects in Grocery Sacks. How may of you have
PIGS too? Now come on, be honest. We're all friends here!!

Okay, I confess. I have 25 years worth
of projects in sacks, boxes and bins.
Now if I live another 25 years I MAY
get a couple done.
Too many ideas, not enough time!!

Nope. None. All of my project are 1) in plastic bins, or 2) on my sewing
table or ironing board. g No grocery sacks for me! LOL!

Since I almost never buy all the fabric at once for specific projects, it
all goes into stash. So no PIGS here. Anyway, groceries don't come in sacks.
I use a wicker shopping basket.

Hahaha .. PIGS gone SOUR...
Id love to do a sour swap. That could be quite interesting.
What makes a quilt go sour for you?


Since my ironing board is in the utility room, it is usually a quilt top
that I have some delusion about working on, but not enough delusions to
actually have it near a sewing machine.

(You read it here first, folks. I don't have enough delusions! *grin*)

Cool Acronym!!! That use dto apply to me as well, but not since we
redid everything in the laundry room....it's too pretty now to let
things pile up in it (not counting the ironing, but that is tucked away
from plain sight).
