Stash Report Sunday February 14

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone.................
Last week I didn't report for I was at a retreat. It was wonderful. I am including last weeks in and out with this weeks report. On the 12th and 13th the Beaumont, TX guild held their Quilt Show. Beautiful, beautiful quilts. And of coarse they had vendors. They twisted my arm and the fabric called my name. And you know, the fabric wanted to go home with me so badly, it jumped into my bag.

Singer Sewing Book 1949 by Mary Brooks Picken

Prepare yourself mentally for sewing. Think about what you are going to do...never approach sewing with a sigh or lackadaisically. Good results are difficult when indifference predominates. Never try to sew with a sink full of dirty dishes or beds unmade. When there are ugent housekeeping chores, do these first so your mind is free to enjoy your sewing....When you sew, make yourself as attractive as possible. Put on a clean dress. Keep a little bag full of French chalk near your sewing machine to dust your fingers at intervals. Have your hair in order, powder and lipstick put on...If you are constantly fearful that a visitor will drop in or your husband will come home and you will not look neatly put together, you will not enjoy your sewing as you should.

GENEALOGY - SURNAMES I AM RESEARCHING

I am looking at Carlisle, PA. The Crago/Craigo's were in that area before and after the Revolutionary War. I am presently doing research on the McGahey/McGahee/McGaughey line. They happened to be in Carlisle, PA also and may be related to my Crago's. According to DNA they come close. Anyone doing Crago or McGahey research I would appreciate it if you would contact me through my email. Thanks a bunch..............
