...Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting...

Psycho Stitchers

I'm joining a quilting group that is made up of a bunch of self proclaimed "loudmouth liberals." WooHoo. Sounds like my kind of people. So, now I am on the market for a sewing machine.

Have I ever sewed before, you ask? Why, yes I have. Not much, but a little. Although I don't speak sewing pattern language (what the hell is a notion?!) with my mom's help I was able to churn out a clown costume consisting of over-sized boxer shorts and a vest. I also took part in a quilting class last fall (I had to drop out because it ended up conflicting with my work schedule)and I made one of those super easy fringey quilts. And it turned out rather nice, if I might say so myself.
