Alright everyone. The sorting queen is here. (self appointed of course) It is my job to organize and direct the sorting. We have rented the Astro Dome. We will line 615 chairs with flannel with the names of quilters on them. Then we will bring in a jet plane and point the engines toward these chairs. Slowly we will release a giant bag full of the HST and the jets will project them toward the chairs. Naturally the sorting will take a little time preparing. I've never backed up a jet plane. Could get interesting. We will need many people to cover the chairs with the flannel slip covers, but all in all we should be done in time for lunch at Papasittos for some much needed fajitas and margaritas!!!
No more fretting over the sorting, that's my job. And I plan not to fret an ounce until that day. (frankly because there is no real point) I do plan on doing a few common sense things to organize ahead of time and enjoy the moment. I have never been involved in an exchange before of any type. That's because I mainly do art quilts. So, I am enjoying everyones energy from all over the world. It's wayyy cool!
Ok, little secret here. I will probably be one of those quilters that will also send in 700 too. So, I can't get mad at that either. Hee Hee.
Here's to making the best of this and wondering what will become of all those HST that I touch. Humm. That is what I want to see. Imagination and love and detail at it's best. The end result. No more fretting. The sorting thing is mine.
Let's have fun with this. Clara
