Make Me Laugh

I found some gorgeous variegated DMC blue perle in my stash, and wanted to use it to do a hoop. It's a bit chunky at Perle 5 to use for this really, but whenever did I do what I was supposed to do?

I've made a good start.


So, go on, make me laugh. What do you think the rest of this quote says? Sarcasm welcome.

I deserve a medal for not resorting to violence when asked (yet again) what's the point of cutting up big pieces of fabric into little pieces only to stitch them back into big pieces. :-)

memmens said...

ok how about
'I deserve a medal for being good at embroidery' you can decide whether or not it's sarcastic!!

Leanne said...

Well I think there might be several things to award you a medal for. I suggest "for quilting so much to avoid killing people."
