an exchange that haunts me

Friday 8 February 2008 | 3 cookies in the jar

unnarrator:
I’m actually learning how to control the fabric as my machine devours it, too, brain realizing: “Hey, speed of machine directly connected to pressure of foot on pedal!” Instead of being all “OMG why is it going so FAST?!?”

oleoptene:
How long do you have to quilt before it becomes a metaphor for everything?

    Secret fantasy: owning a quilt.

    WOW! Way cool. (And possibly a good excuse for neglecting scrabble duties with freezing cold NM resident whose boyfriend now works 12-hour shifts at night in a hospital and who sits around staring at scrabble game wishing someone would make a move and who has few people to play with because she keeps beating people and now no one will play with her, which makes online scrabble her metaphor). As I was saying: that quilt is beautiful!
