Quilt Sayings

I'm sorry if I have any repeaters.
Don't needle the seamstress!
Dull women have immaculate homes.
Fabricologist Resource Center... Now doesn't that sound more impressive then fabric stash?
Families are stitched together with memories.
Families are like quilts, stitched together one piece at a time.
Friendship is sewn with love and measured by kindness.
From my hands to your heart.
A block a day keeps the shrink away!
