    Motivational Quote

    I was searching through posts in our QYW forum (trying to track down the name of a fabric I know I had posted about some time ago), and found this goodie. It was something I had lifted from a lady on the Dear Jane mail list.

    "Remember: She who dies with the most fabric is still dead. Get to work!"

    'Nuff said.

                  Well that sure tells me something because I have a lot of fabric sitting here. I'd better get busy because I do have a lot to do. Thanks forthe laugh.

                    Judy, as I recall, you once made the excellent point that buying fabric now was in an investment in your future, post-retirement. It's not like it will get cheaper, after all. ;p

                    Glad you all liked the quote LOL!

                      You are right. I consider it my 401K because I probably won't be able to buy fabric then.
