I am sure that everyone who knows Avis is helping out in one way or another. From the Fire Dept to the local "guilt" group --I know you mean quilt, but there are a few "guilty quilters" among us. LOL Anyway, my idea is to just go through and get a small beginning together for her that she can use now and later/or donate to charity of her choice after. Like I say I have 4 generations of collecting behind me. LOL I have an extra cutting mat and rotary cutter if she wants them. I'm sorry, she doesn't get my Gigher shears, but I do have some Fiskars to pass her way. I have a small pair of embroidery scissors and a ton of floss and a few hoops ---a gift certificate to the local shop should get her back in business on her embroidery that she does to relax. I have a selection of hand sewing needles and a tub of various scraps for her to sort through. Just small things to me, but I know how much "normal" helps get you through the rough times.
