I usually freeze and when frozen vacuum seal them. <br /><br />And as always fun to see all the photo's of your quilts you pull from your stash. I love the one you showed on Tuesday... So pretty.

It's the low parts that I always want to hire out. When I do need to stand on something, I have two old plastic milk crates (circa 1980) that I flip over and stand on. They feel more stable than a step ladder.Paulettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181665241824945247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-67764830408195329992012-08-30T10:44:55.007-05:002012-08-30T10:44:55.007-05:00Ugh!

Finally, I went to Sherwin Williams and bought a quart of yellow. Then from Wal-Mart, a gallon of "Country" white. With a 2-gallon bucket, I slowly mixed the 2 and came up with just the right shade. Good luck!Gypsy Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18192303145122990677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-57090475730560767172012-08-30T07:52:49.167-05:002012-08-30T07:52:49.167-05:00Yikes!!!

It is a lot of work so I guess that is why I haven't put the second coat on my living room. It took me hours and hours to paint the walls and the ceiling. The room has a goofy shape so the ceiling is the same color as the walls. The ceiling in my living room is an angled cathedral that goes up to 13.5 feet on one side and down to 8 feet on the other side. I am only 5' 2" and even on an 8 foot ladder and using an extention pole, getting up to the 13.5' area is hard! I could sure use one of my 6'+ brothers to help me with that high area! Be careful and I look foward to seeing the results! I hope you saved some of those cookies for a little snack while you are painting.patty a.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01861433552460661701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-20034906296858000492012-08-30T06:36:06.091-05:002012-08-30T06:36:06.091-05:00Lots of work, but it will be so nice.
