sammi357 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 My hubby's motto at work seems to apply to quilting, I thought y'all might appreciate a chuckle! He's an electrician, and folks are always telling him what they want done, then they say they don't want it to 'cost too much'... so he goes to the nearest wall and draws a triangle, on each side he writes a word: Good Fast Cheap then he says, "Pick two!" LOL! If you want it good and fast, it won't be cheap! etc. (These are usually new construction jobs, with no finished walls, just in case you're wondering whose walls he's messing up! lol!) sammi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvia Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 I love the 'right' or 'now' quote. Something to keep in mind. It may be comforting to us when we are feeling pressured to get a quilt done. Sylvia from Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
