Fed Ex, Staples, local print shop. You shouldnāt pay more than $2-3 - around here anyway.
Another quilt - very quick, but still cute I think.
And the start of a zipper quilt:
Both out of the same 6ā Jam Roll.
Thatās really cool! Makes me think of book binding
Iāve been busy trying to decide on new glasses. I did a virtual try-on but canāt decide. I think Iāve narrowed it down to red, black or black floral. I really like the black floral but Iām wondering if they are good for every day glasses. My husband asked, āWould you wear them to a funeral?ā So, Iām taking a vote - red, black or floral?
I donāt think the floral is too bright or loud, and I personally wouldnāt feel out of place wearing them to a funeral. (I included the pic of me in my current everyday glasses, which are brown with pink arms and pink flowers across the bridge, to prove I do mean that!) So if you like them, I say go with the floral! If you decide against the floral, I prefer the red to the black, the black seems a bit too stark.
I vote for red, unless they would clash with a lot of the clothes that you wear . But then you probably wouldnāt have chosen them as a finalist if they did. I hate picking out glasses as much as you do and i need to go get my eyes checked.
take both the red and the floral so you can alternate - the floral goes well with your hair and they make you look happy - the red is more neutral if you want them to match your mood and clothing - the black makes you look very serious and I think you already have black glasses?
Iāll vote for the red also, but I personally donāt like āfussyā glass so take that with a grain of salt.
Those are adorable!
@lovestostitch
my choices 1. Floral 2. red
In response to your hubby. Yes, of course, there are always flowers at funeralsā¦lol.
I like the floral! I think you could wear them to a funeral, by the way. Who would be criticizing you that you donāt have āfuneral glassesā??
Your husband is definitely a āprepare for the worstā kind of guy! I guess a bit like mine!
Iām with @Nyssareen , if you like the floral best, get them but if it were down to the red and black Iād go with the red. Like others said, the black seems a little too stark & serious
Also, I like what @hereami said about the floral ones, funerals always have flowers
I personally like the red.
I really love the floral but I think they are out of the running because of the nose bridge. Iāve had such a hard time getting my glasses to be comfortable that Iāve been doing a lot of research on the different measurements on glasses. Iāve also realized how optical shops give you very little advice on how to really get a good fit.
Iāve only had one plastic pair of glasses and they were a fit disaster. I think the plastic are cuter but Iām not sure about sizing. The floral pair has the same bridge size as the disaster pair so Iām not doing that again.
Here is my finished zipper quilt top.
Today one of our guilds is having a quilt show. Iām planning on going with a couple friends.
@Char,
Wowā¦it felt like you did that one really fast.
It looks great.
I have never been to a quilt show. What will go on at a quilt show? Displays? Classes? Things for sale??
I just read a book and the sweet old ladies had a day out together. It started as a nice quiet time in a community center talking and having tea, then ended with male entertainers arriving.
I am pretty sure there wonāt be that sort of entertainment. You live too far away for rumors and news to spread to meā¦so I thought I would ask.
LOL.
The thread is up for the weekly totals for 9/17 I totally forgot to post it earlier in the week.
Yah. I did a lot of fast quilts this week. It is becoming the season for bigger needs for quilts for kids. :). Finished one, started and finished 3 tops this week.
The quilt show displays a lot of quilts made by guild members. Look but donāt touch kind of thing.
There is also a trade show (marketplace) where people can buy stuff.
It is a fundraiser for the guild to go towards their charitable work.
