Deborah on the pedestrian mall in Knoxville
We both need some serious fabric therapy for a dozen reasons totally unrelated to sewing/quilting.... and JoAnn's is having a big SALE! And we have COUPONS!
We'll also hit Trader Joe's and Whole Foods before heading back to our neck o' the woods.
For those of you who didn't know what F.A.R.T. stood for and were wondering what in the heck??? *lol* ...here's a list of some quilting acronyms found online that I find a bit amusing...
FART: Fabric Acquisition Road Trip
Frogging (or frog stitching): using a seam ripper to remove stitches... rip it, rip it.... (around here "frogging" has a different connotation so I about fell over when I first heard this term from House Dragon)
PhD: Project Half Done (as in: I'm working on my PhD)
PIGS: Projects In Grocery Sacks
SABLE: Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy
SEX: Stash Enhancing eXperience (or eXcursion)
STASH: Special Treasures All Secretly Hidden
SUI: Shopping Under Influence (usually the "evil" influence of a friend)
TOAD: Trashed Object Abandoned in Disgust
UFO: UnFinished Object
WIP: Work In Progress
WISP: Work In Slow Progress
WIVSP: Work In Very Slow Progress
WIWMI: Wish It Would Make Itself
WOMBAT: Waste of Money, Batting, And Time
WWIT: What Was I Thinking?
Yo-Yo: a circle of fabric, gathered and sewn into a puffy circle; also refers to the person who makes them
401 F: Fabric for Retirement
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
