    Default Anything she can do I can too.............

    Holly and I had a discussion awhile ago about things women can do better than men. She was telling me women do all the intricate things and men can only fix things and when they are done, they are done.

    OHHHHH Really,,,,,,,,,,, I said.
    Yea really, Holly said...........
    Name one thing you can do that I cant ?????????, was my reply.
    She said,,,,,,,,,, No way in could a man make a quilt as good as a woman.


    With the invention of Youtube........... Your dead wrong Holly !!!!!!!!!!!


    6 months ago, I started this and I just finished it today (pretty good for my first time and being a man)..........
    BTW Holly......... anything you can do I can do too !!!!!!!!!!!

    Randy, that's actually pretty. Nice job man. And as far as I see it, the only thing we can't do that a woman does is give birth.

    I know that Lamonts wife is a hell of a quilter. She made a snake and Lamont posted the pic, I wish I could find it to post. That would put mine to shame.

    My Missus can nail together a pretty fair quilt...
    ...And you should be proud of yours!
    Did she say anything about women can do everything that a man can do?
    Challenge her to write her name in a snowbank... and be real specific about which bodily fluids she's allowed to use!

    Things like that can be very relaxing. It looks awesome. Much better than I could manage .
    I like to bake, but the wifey would never be silly enough to challange me on that.
    Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
    The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally

    Just sayin'............

    Randy,
    The Missus sends you a "", and wants to know if you did the quilting by hand, or was it machine-finished?
    Either way though...
