Sewing Smiles

Once again life whirls by and drops something unexpected into our laps. As the wind whistles around my house tonight, my best laid blogging plans have once again gone awry and I cannot seem to snatch back my thoughts to make it a reality.

So I thought I'd share a bit of sewing humor instead. I love words and here's a few of my favorite sewing quotes which were found here. Which one do you like the best?

For the Knitters:

                               I like making a piece of string into something I can wear.  

~Elizabeth Zimmerman

It took me years and years of trial efforts to work out that there is absolutely no knitting triumph I can achieve that my husband will think is worth being woken up for.  ~Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, At Knit's End:  Meditations for Women Who Knit Too Much

For the Seamsters:

Asking a seamstress to mend is like asking Michelangelo to paint your garage.

Those who sleep under a quilt, sleep under a blanket of love.

For the Stashbusters:

Sewing fills my days, not to mention the living room, bedroom, and closets.  ~Author Unknown

For us all!

I hope you got to put a few stitches in something today!
