Books to read. Woohoo! My favorite snack is pretzels. Lovely quilts.

Vivian Zug said...

My favorite snack while quilting is eating sunflower seeds. They're very high in calories so I have to monitor myself.

Marci said...

If I'm watching calories, pretzels is my snack; if I'm not it's chocolate, of course!

Thank you for your generosity!

Loved the QOV quilt show! My favorite snack is popcorn when I want to be healthy and animal crackers when I just don't care.

Don't like to snack while quilting - just drink lots of flavored water. BUT when I take a break, I go for something healthy like apples & cheese, a handful of nuts, trail mix -something to keep my energy up. Then have to wash my hands before I can get back to business!

More fun smiles and fun quilts. My favorite quilting snack is popcorn

What could it be but chocolate?...Especially peanut M&M's. They melt in your mouth.....

Love the block drive! It gives those of us who quilt for other charities a chance to contribute to QOV too.
