Things I Don't Say

My dear friend Crispy did a blog about this - it was fascinating, and brave, so I thought I'd give it a try.

Things I Don't Say - but that are true, none the less.

1. I hate entering a room full of people by myself, I'd much rather walk in right behind someone else.

2. I love to spend time all alone - by myself - completely quiet.

3. I don't like big wide fabric borders on quilts - they seem like cheating and rarely do they add to the beauty of the quilt.

4. I like dolls and love to make clothes for my six dolls.

5. I'll straighten a crooked picture on the wall if at all possible, even though "they" say if you can't leave a crooked picture alone you have no self control - but I say, if you leave a crooked picture you have no taste.

6. I like to slop around the house all day in my old clothes - but I'll get dressed nicely if I have to.

7. My favorite fabrics are 30s reproductions and I greatly dislike the new color combos of reds, turquoise, orange and neon lime, or turquoise and brown - yuck!

8. I don't make fad quilts, nor table runners or wall hangings - just not my thing.

9. I'll catch a spider, fly or any other bug and take it outdoors - I have a special butterfly net for just that - I never squish a bug.

10. I'll give money to people standing on the corner - if they are brave enough to stand there and take the hate and disrespect that I've seen then I'm happy to give them $20.00 - when I have so much and they have so little.

11. I feel bad when I hear a sad story about someone's life - everyone is somebody - and is someone's son, daughter, mother, father, aunt, uncle, sibling - everyone is somebody.
