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. :-)

    .....not murdering my eldest brother when I was young as he was mean, cruel and made my life miserable.

    ....however it was good that you didn't murder him as now he's great to have around (ocassionally).

    ...not strangling my colleagues (oh no, wait, that's me)

    ...not throttling my child when she ruins my Christmas cake decor

    ...staying married to you for so long

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