F is for Fabric...

Fabric...lots and lots and lots of fabric. What is it about that stuff that makes a fabric-aholic want to own every yard of it ever woven?

Hi!
I've been a bit remiss in some of my blog reading but have thoroughly enjoyed catching up with yours today. I particularly liked the footnote about double prepositions.

When Alex was nearing the end of the eighth grade, we attended an evening "high school orientation" program. We were each handed a program. It read, "Dreher High School: Look towards the future". One of the English teachers was even listed as a speaker.

I was flabbergasted and commented to Alex and Steve, "One cannot plural a preposition." Alex asked, "What's a preposition". So, yes, in the South we can have double prepositions and plural ones too! Alex and I talked in plural prepositions for the rest of the night. At least he knows what one is now!

The photos of "Daisy", the quilting weekend, the story of the copperhead snake, and the memories of good books have been wonderful.

Try to stay cool....it's d--m hot here too!
Susan

When you figure out the fabric -holic answer, please let me know. I've always wondered about this strange phenomenon.

What other word could you possibly choose for F? How perfect!

I will be going for the first time to a quilting shop I've always wanted to visit on Thursday. It's 2 hours away, and my husband is taking me there as part of our anniversary get-away. Should be fun!
