A really cool day is a wooddorker's life...

Tragic, I calls it. But then we live in 'interesting' times.

I wonder if Dante reserved a special circle in Hell for the bean counters. And if so I have to wonder what the appropriate punishment for that species of vermin might be.

Uncharitable thoughts this close to Christmas.

Just northeast of Oakland, CA. She wants to do machine quilting, on queen and king sized machine-pieced quilts.

She has a Quilter's Companion, by Janome, that we bought 15 months ago at Meissner's in Sacramento. She wants a bit more reach under the arm, for bigger quilts.

I don't know all the terms, but she uses woolen(?) batting, and high quality, all cotton materials from the finer suppliers. We see about 6 or

And she watches Alex Andersen almost like LRod watches Norm. TiVo can do that for you / to you.

My wife doesn't really do much else in the way of sewing. Our kids are grown, and the grandson grows too fast to keep up with making him much. Macy's is so much simpler.

So we had heard.

Looking forward to it.

That's a price range we're trying to avoid. She's not THAT addicted.

I'm going to go give SWMBO a big hug for only being into making bead jewelry.

Oh really ? 8-)

We don't have _all_ the fun toys.

I'm tempted by this

Great. She's out teaching a quilting class right now, but when she gets back this evening I'm sure she'll have some suggestions.

She's into weaving with the tiny "seed beads', she doesn't make her own (yet). She's quite serious about it, but has only taken over one room thus far. She's even won a few awards.

Thankfully, her hobby/obsession doesn't require machinery, carbide tipped anything, or open flame ;^).

Seems to me 520 bd ft red oak for $100 is a good day too.

Yes. Under 20 cents a board foot is great.

That would be the equivalent of allowing them to live in my head rent-free all this time. Call it disappointment. They took a thriving backyard niche business, grossing $6K per month and turned it into a five hundred dollar per month venture. Make of it what you will.

I wholly concur with patriarch's trip, however. I have done several similar trips (including the visit to Hock Mansion), and it's a tough one to top for scenery, woodDorking, people, etc. in this state. I even have some redwood burls running around somewheres.

We won't go there. ;)

Sadness. But at least they doubled your prices. I couldn't believe the difference (60-100% increases) and have not bought any from them as a result. 'Course, I'm perfectly happy with Waterlox for nearly everything.

Happy BirdDay!
