"No, it's not a Texas Town. It's a Math Thing. My goodness, didn't you take Geometry in school? "
Really, it's not a town down by Turkey, Texas? I could swear I've been through there on my way to Venus and Mars, Texas.
Josephine and I have been steadily working on her Texas Quilt, and over the course of these several weeks we've had a running commentary going with 'Have you ever been to (blank), Texas?. The plan is to include these Only In Texas Towns on the 'Label' of Josephine's Texas Our Texas Quilt.
The 'Label' is the finishing touch on a quilt and serves as a record about the who, where and when of the quilt. We are going to need a BIG label in order to include all of these Only In Texas Towns.

I wonder if Broome, population 2, is still there. Haven't driven thru there in over 20 years.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue .. the thought of making a quilt out of tessellated tile fabric would make me shudder and I'll stay in my Eastbourne town here over the pond!
ReplyDeleteCheers Hilary
