You must be a great teacher... what grade?<br />As for #7 - it's not all about color, it's also about the chemicals on the fabrics that could be bad for you the quilt maker,,, and the shrinkage from one fabric to another could be completely image ruining. We wouldn't want that now, would we?<br />(Love your blog from the first time I read it, and followed since then... read some back issues, too. You have lots of interesting solutions to problems.)<br />HugsTerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927552672720816359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307622517630413687.post-61427207318905359022014-09-01T10:23:52.456-06:002014-09-01T10:23:52.456-06:00I was sent over to visit you by Willit Neverend.

I use mostly tan thread for piecing. I keep a tall wastebasket next to my chair when I'm sewing because the dog eats any thread or scraps end up on the floor and I can't think they are good for him. I do prewash my fabric before I use it because my daughter who is an industrial designer made me promise I would! Thank for you list. It's fun to compare.Apple Avenue Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04313157784963634206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307622517630413687.post-52960111693083730082014-09-01T09:27:58.506-06:002014-09-01T09:27:58.506-06:00Your list sounds a lot like mine would!

I realised you are well organised, but I didn't expect you to be a messy, threads-on-the-floor, sewer. (I am, but then I'm generally chaotic!)
