Whatever DID I Do?

Well, I got that dang table together, with a little help from DH Gene. They include a little wrench and I use that term loosely. That wrench caused a lot of frustration but Gene came to the rescue with a bit more patience and better tools. Note to self, add a good adjustable wrench to the tool bag. All in all it was a funny scene. Gene and I on the floor with table parts and bags of screws, nuts, washers and bolts scattered around and all the dogs on the bed watching intently. Stella learned that she was not welcome when stuff like this is going on and joined the rest of the crew in the (peanut?) gallery.


For the money spent on this it's a great table. It is fairly sturdy, folds well and with the addition of a cover I can iron on it too. Rolls easily over my hard floors and the height is just perfect.


I'm a happy camper. I wish I had had it when I was making quilts. It would have made everything so much easier. I give 4 out of 5 stars. The top could be a little thicker and it probably could be made a bit more beefy and it is made in China. It is available at Joann's Fabric only, as far as I can tell, list price is $129.00USD but they always have coupons and sales. I used a 40% off coupon I had received for it.

The towel warp comes off today and the overshot warp hopefully will get measured out and put on by the weekend. That's the plan at least. And we know all about plans don't we! I also have a post that needs finishing due to a lovely award from Michelle at Boulderneigh and of course I'm still working on the common cold cure....;)

Yesterday both DH and I slowed down for just a few moments to enjoy St. Valentines Day. It's not one of our favorite holidays, but neither one of us needs much of an excuse to give a fun card, have some chocolates and a meal topped off with a nice bottle of wine. I actually got two cards, one via the computer. I hope everyone enjoyed and kept the day in their own special way.

Parting shot: He's been at it again...
