OKAY, WHO'S TOOTSIE'S ARE HURTING? CORNS, ANYONE?

Last night, after everyone had left we saw a funny thing on the floor in the living room.

"It's one of those bandages for corns, like on people's feet," Phil said.

"There's no padding," I said.

"Well, that's what it is anyway, maybe the padding is still on their foot."

"Who has a corn?"

"Don't know," he said.

So, I took the corn bandage and THREW IT AWAY. After all, who saves such a thing. And then today, I looked at the little Thanksgiving quilt that Soap Queen made for me years ago. Something didn't look quite right.
I took a closer look.
And then a closer one and there was the missing "corn bandage." It wasn't a bandage at all but a Pilgrim buckle.
I'm so glad no one is limping, except for my Pilgrim, whose shoe may fall off, because of the unbuckling, and then he will be limping for sure.
PS Thank you, Soap Queen, I love this quilt and the Christmas one, too.

I can see how his buckle could get confused with a corn Bandage
Maybe you could make the pilgrim another buckle, either that or use a corn Bandage LOL
