the secret life of quilters....


So we go into a little itty bitty quilters supply store and JerryJoeJimBob asks us what he can help us find.
We need some black fabric.
He can hook us up.
How much do we need?
30 yards.
Well, no, he can't help us with that much on such short notice but if we have cash in hand we can
"go down 30 to Harry Hines and exit Perth and drive into the warehouse district and blah blah blah and under the bridge and turn left and they can help us.
Now you gotta be sure to have cash in hand because money talks and these little oriental ladies have everything you could possibly need. If ya know what I mean.
Watch out tho,cuz they got the good stuff... and they got the other stuff...if ya know what I mean"

We nod. Never intending to make the trip downtown but entranced by the story.

"Remember, cash in hand. Just take 30 down to blah blah.....turn left. There's a jiggle joint on the corner there ladies, if ya know what I mean."

As we leave we discuss the true definition of jiggle joint and wonder if we should be concerned that somehow we just made a drug deal.

Still laughing.
