    100 m running stitch
    200 m running stitch
    400 m running stitch
    4 x 100 running stitch relay....

        I nominate "Speed Quilter-Clara" team captian. Right now my messy sewing room is a definite obstacle course when it comes to getting anything done fast, not-to-mention that it is also a real downer in terms of getting the creative juices flowing. Captain how do it get it going again? Lois

          Sounds like you are in the fencing category to me :wink:

          'Fenced' out of your sewing room by mess.
          'Foiled' by the scale of it.
          an 'Epee' to get right to the point of your problem.
          and need a 'Sabre' to cut through to the heart of it.

          :lol:

                  I'll take the blame. Ha! I am off to get this ole body in shape for Fabric Vaulting.
                  If I make it over the quilt bar and land in piles and piles of batting and FABRIC,
                  the winner collects the piles of fabric and batting (which has been collected the last 4 years).
                  :lol: :lol: :wink:

                  oh ya, I think "Quilting Olympics" would make a good quilt pattern name?? help

                            If she does that I think we all need to chip in and purchase a uniform for her made out of that stuff those rotary cutter safety gloves are made out of. I think someone should design a uniform with our Star and letters TQS. Where are the former garment designers among us?
