We Women Can Do It!

Just wanted to post this little quilt in honor of St. Patrick's Day. I have not had a place to hang small quilts so today I put up a little rod for them. These are my tools and I can almost do anything with them. My saw is in the shed out side. I didn't need it today. Ladies if you have a man in your family that complains that he has no tools or is not handy with tools just call on me and I'll come-a-runnin and we will get the job done. Now the pliers are new, the hammer was my fathers and the screw drivers are what my husband allowed me to use of his. Great aren't they? LOL I get the jobs done anyway. When we women decide we are going to get something done WE DO!!

Love this post; it's so true about us women, and when we make up our minds to do something, we just "DO IT". Your tools are lovely..lol

That's how it is at my house, most of the time, anyway.

You go girl! And if you want something done right we must do it ourselves.

When my sisters and I were very young all three of us loved to make things. I think that was the way kids entertained themselves in those days. Our mother sat us down with old clothes and needles and thread and we made our dolls clothes.
My creativity grew from there and I found myself in high school making all of my own clothes. I did get a lot of attention with my matching outfits including hats. Since I was shy maybe that was my way of creating my own world and at the same time getting attention.
I finally did get tired of making clothes and went into quilting. The first year I quilted I made every family member quilts, quilts and more quilts.
You can only make so many quilts and so many bags before you have no space left. What is a very nutty creative person going to do about this?? Well you are going to open an ETSY shop and sell some of this stuff, right?? http://fabricartist21.etsy.com/
My neighbor asked me to make her a T-Shirt Quilt and I have been doing that for over a year now. I take special orders through my Etsy shop. I have become very busy with this business and will continue to create t-shirt quilts as long as their are customers that want them.
