Default Safe house

Recently I attended the local quilt show, and for a $2 admission I received a little numbered ticket. While browsing the quilts they called my number, and I was the excited recipient of a gorgeous bundle of fat quarters - hydrangeas. They all were from a "set", but only one fat quarter of each design. What to do with it? It sat on my sewing table for several weeks, and I decided finally to make baby quilts. I was able to make two baby quilts, and still have 6 fat quarters left over for something else. Since I don't know anyone who needs a baby quilt at this time, I donated them to the local safe house for abused women. Wow, they were so excited! They will give them to women who need them to care for their babies.

Now I am looking at my stash, and thinking I may be able to make another two or three of them. What a joy it is to give something that is desperately needed, and yet receives no publicity!
