Donated Fabric
Well I went to the "new" Senior Center and was looking at the quilts that were hanging on the wall waiting their turn to be brought down for quilting. Each was on the frame. Nice large room as the quilters had a California King and what she called a California Queen, 2 Twin and 4 baby/throw quilts set up and ladies were quilting on each. Several ladies were talking about some fabric that was going to the trash bin at exactly 5pm that day. NOT!!!! I asked if I could look at those pieces as I thought they would be cut after being used for a quilt or two. WRONG. The main piece is a 36wide by over 20feet long. When I measured it on my sewing room (dining room 5foot long) table It fit on the table folded lengthwise 4 times and I had several inches left over. This will go for clothing first for girls 1T to 3T. Should have enough for several dresses those sizes. These will go to Goodwill Christmas Give Away. There were also 14 size (3 inches each side-full and 12 halves and 2 quarter) miniature Grandmother's Flower Garden--pre-printed; 1 Dresden Plate again preprinted with a shadow heart and then a flowered fabric heart. This one may actually be called something else as I, personally, have never seen one with the heart motif. All I have ever seen is ones with the center circle. Whoever cut the Flower Garden blocks apart did a good job of cutting past the 4th round of hexies. All of these are plain center. Flower 2nd round. Plain 3rd round and 5-point star / flower.
I tried to add the pictures but my laptop is not allowing me to adjust the size--it gets stubborn at times.
Don't know if this would be falling off the wagon of Fabric Moratorium 2025. Either way I HAVE new funzies.
