So.....you see all these zippers. I guess you could say I have a zipper fetish....not really. Here in Amerika Samoa they are only 35 to 50 cents a zipper.... The ones in the pack are from the US.
Why am I showing you zippers? Well.....you tell me how many are in this pile and you be the first to guess....I will send you a little something....nothing big because a few weeks ago....I had a whopping 62 dollar postal bill. So I guess you can say, I am zipping my postal wallet.
Notice the little baggies, at one time I tried to be organized putting the same sized zipper in baggies....hummmmmmmm that went by the way side....
...
Here they are in the box that I have them in....any guesses yet?
I got my Steam a Seam on a roll...We will see how long it last.
Maybe I spend to much time on my own? When I was visiting my mother, she would give me weird looks....I told her I talk this way when I am alone....it is a habit....anyone looking in on me and see me dancing around with fabric, smelling it, singing, commenting....well....if it wasn't for my husband, I would probably already be in the loony bin......gotta keep that man....I have a few sons that call me a weirdo.....I will have to look out for those ....they will be the first to take me in.
Barb you always make me laugh so I must be a weirdo too hehehehe. I reckon there is 68 zips all up :)

Hmmmm maybe 57 zippers??? Have ytou thought of making one of those pencil cases that is made all from colored zips the same size? Very cute - love them when the kids have them in class. Will make one myself one day! You've got enough zips to make a few of them!! :)
ReplyDelete47?
ReplyDeleteBarb, you are naturally funny. and what plans do you have for the zippers? I hope you get to keep your internet today. Why does it keep going out?
ReplyDelete96 zippers. I have a few myself. But I sewed clothes for a long time.
ReplyDelete97 zippers in the pile!
ReplyDeleteI say 47. Here I now have to go nearly 40 miles to buy all sizes of zippers....so that is one thing you have in AS that is better than what I have here! lol
ReplyDeleteI'll hazard a guess (I'm not an expert on piles of zippers) but will say 52.
ReplyDeleteCrispy
well I can't wait to see how many zippers you have there I'm guess at 72
ReplyDeleteI think there are 27. . . but then my eyes aren't really awake yet!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Ok how about 49 does that sound like the number of zips.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how many it is, but I'll guess 75.
ReplyDeleteToo funny! A few sons that would be the first to take you in :o)
ReplyDeleteMy guess is 37. And I hear that the postal rates are going up again in January :-( Really puts a damper on sending things through the mail.
ReplyDeleteYOU crack me up!! YOu are a funny little bird!! But I love ya!!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna guess 117....actually that is what Joey thinks...so I'm going with that. He was walking by the computer so I got him to guess. THis is fun, can't wait to see how far off he is!! This way is is wrong, not me!!
Wow Barb.. what are you going to do with all those zippers? I think I will guess 78.... have a great day..
ReplyDeleteOk, you have me hooked. I'll say 72.
ReplyDeleteI love how you write! You are always so energetic. My husband laughs at me cause I write like I talk. I have to think about my writing when I do my blog sometimes.
Have a great "internet" day.
Barb, you are so funny, love your post. I would say there's 72 zippers. I wish I could find zippers for .35 -.50 cents.
ReplyDeleteI'd take you in anytime! Cute post. I hope your power is up today (more than down).
ReplyDeleteAre their 72 zippers?

You need zipper projects. And when you find some good ones, let me know :)
ReplyDeletehow about you just send me all those zippers and no one has to count them? i use tons on my capri sun stuff. let's see.......i say 64
ReplyDeleteOK =I will guess 52!
ReplyDeleteI also collect zippers. I've used them on children's teacher quilts, with buttons, pockets, etc. I also buy the steam a seam by the roll, and like it a lot. While I'am making a comment, I might just as well say 200 zippers. Thank you for sharing, Barb.
ReplyDeleteHappy Quilting!
I think 65
ReplyDeleteBarb, you devil you,
ReplyDeletemy best guess is forty-four zippers.
If I am not correct then you have waaay tooo mannny zippers.
:^) ! ! ! ! !
Where's all the new fabric?????
Yep, your hubby's a keeper.
Hugs & ♥♥♥s,
Gerry
Well, I'll be the first to HAZARD a guess - if they're all in that shoebox, I figure somewhere around 45 zippers.
ReplyDeleteI have an ulterior motive here, you know. I'm 'on the hunt' for a really long zipper in pink. Or turquoise. :snerk:
My first answer is a pile of them Barb but that is probably not the answer you are looking for- How about 99..
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that the steam of seam arrived ! How about your die cutters?
Have a zippy day. :D
Warmest regards,

ReplyDeleteI don't know what you are making (?little wallets?).... but with that steam a seam on a roll- something with applique AND a zipper!! LOL-
ReplyDeletedo you ever use fusible web? I want to make a wallet- and I would like to use the selvedges of fabrics (seems to be quite popular now) thinking of sewing them to the fusible, then ironing....any thoughts? Hope you had agreat shopping trip! Sandy
I love zippers :) Don't know why but I just love to look through boxes of zippers. I guess you have maybe 45 zippers. That is an amazing price for zippers.
ReplyDeleteOk, here's my guess on the number of zippers:125.
ReplyDeleteGirl, you must be bored! Go buy some of that fabric your husband said you could buy...Have a great day and I hope you internet holds out. Hugs, Lind
Hmmm, I love these games, I am thinking 42!!
ReplyDeleteYou're making money bags with all those zippers because you won the lottery and need to put your money somewhere safe. :) Is that it?!
ReplyDeletehee,hee,hee.
I'm just as weird as you. Guess that's why we like each other. :)
Hugs!

ReplyDeleteOk I'll bite and guess 28.. your blog just cracks me up.
ReplyDeleteI saw a cute zipper pouch somewhere on blogland....totally made of zippers......I guess 88
ReplyDeleteYou have a LOT of zips! lol 62?
ReplyDeleteHow many guesses am I allowed? lol
