Ten years ago, I went to Calico Corners and ordered up fabric to do up the master bedroom. Bedskirt, quilt, chaise lounge. This many years later, I can say I hate the quilt. I have probably hated it for at least five years, but couldn't let go of it. It costs a fortune. But husband1 says it is like sleeping under a lead blanket.
Today, I am getting it out of the house. I considered selling it on eBay, but shipping costs would be extreme. I estimate the weight to be around 60 pounds. I am not lying. I can't weigh it, because when I tried to put it on the scale, I couldn't find a way to see what the numbers on the scale read. This was when I still wanted to prove that it did not weigh as much as a lead blanket. Now, to get it out of the house, I have to roll it onto a sheet and d-r-a-g it to the backdoor and haul it into the car somehow. (This is a clandestine mission, as I don't want husband1 to know that I am getting rid of it and offspring3 hates any kind of change and will be upset to see it go.)
