    Isn't this what makes our board great? We can each enjoy the part of our quilting craft that makes us happy! Boy do I love this Board!

Many others have given to me too! One nice lady in NH sent me the cutest ISPY fabs and be on the lookout for a kid's quilt coming up soon with those adorable fabs! Well, Sue, you will love this little mini tut I put together this afternoon! Hope you enjoy it and I'm sure some of your scraps will be there too! So many people have questions that I thought the pics would answer it all of how I do this. Enjoy and heal quick! Don't worry about sending me more scraps -- just get your proper rest so you can heal fast! Looking forward to your posting and quilts again! n2! Thank you again, Sue, you are such a blessing to me!!!!!!! Yea!!!!!
    Your work with scraps is amazing.

    I so agree with every word!!! I too, am a lucky recipient of Sue's wonderful scraps and they are in most of my quilts! So sorry to hear about your shoulder Sue, holding you in our hearts that you will be healed and back with us soon!!! We certainly have missed you!

    LOL Hey as long as she shoots herself first, you are pretty safe, so go ahead and keep introducing those new techniques and projects. We all need to spread our wings a little bit now and then.

    Bev - I am right with you there. Everybody does something different. I so enjoy looking at all of it. I am getting too many ideas for something new to sew.

    I absolutely love your work and your approach to your art....I like to think of these treasured bits as "fragments of beauty"...crumbs just reminds me of toast
