Pressing News! (Thimble Thursday)
In a move that is sure to disappoint quilters and seamstresses everywhere, Hasbro has announced The Beloved Iron is OUT from Monopoly games!
Fellow tokens rallied round to cheer up their longtime friend, but the Parker Brothers were unmoved!
They claim The Beloved Iron was voted out on Facebook in February–(an unfair forum–How many quilters and seamstresses spend any time on Facebook?)
Complaints were met with indifference…and armed guards!
So the iron was left high and (worse yet) DRY!
Our only consolation…
The Dimpled Thimble was spared!
And the replacement?
A Rotary Cutter perhaps?
No!
Much to the chagrin of Ruby and Roxie.…

Very sad news!
That’s it, I’m never playing Monopoly again (and now I have an excuse)!
I’m not turning mine in!
They’ll be very valuable now. Maybe end up on Antiques Roadshow!
Not good news! And I’m allergic to cats! A very dim outlook for Monopoly in my future….more time for quilting.
You’re right – who has time for silly Monopoly games, anyway? More time for quilting!
Now we have no excuse not to complete those UFOs!
Tragedy… Dogs and (new) cats living and playing together this will only lead to chaos from Baltimore to the Boardwalk. Who will press out the huge wrinkles in this new dilema? Perhaps teh steam ship will lend a hand, after all a thimble can only do so much finger pressing :o)
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
You are hilarious!
Uh-oh…I’m allergic to cats! I’m gonna miss that iron!
hilarious!
