-=> Quoting Ruth Haffly to Don Vally <=-

 RH> I wouldn't say super smart, just, having made a good number of quilts,
 RH> I've conquered the basics of calculating number and width of strips to
 RH> cut, sub cuts needed, etc. I've been sewing since I was 7 years old,
 RH> so for decades now (won't say how many-G-), taught it on a one to one
 RH> basis different times & places and made anything from curtains to a
 RH> wedding gown (plus the dresses for the rest of the party) to a 3 piece
 RH> suit for my husband and projects in between.

 You sound 'quite' accomplished at sewing! As I mentioned, I 'might' be
 able to get a button sewed on, but that's the extent of my skills.

 RH> I'm taking a break from sewing today--made a strawberry pie this
 RH> morning and will do a batch of strawberry-rhubarb preserves this
 RH> afternoon. It's fresh strawberry season in NC and my husband brought
 RH> home 4 boxes from the local farmer's market on Saturday. They have to
 RH> be used quickly or will go bad so now we're down to about 1/2 a
 RH> box--just right for nibbles over the next few days.

 OK - Strawberry rhubarb preserves, I'm coming to your house for lunch!
 ;)

 I love strawbery rhubarb pies. They are my downfall. I did make some
 strawberry brownies, but used a strawberry cake mix and used the
 berries on top! They weren't bad for someone who can't cook or sew..

 Have a great day Ruth!
