For someone who really likes to do scrappy string quilts, person "6 " who sends me a PM with address/name * (because I have 5 grandkids , and one more due on Oct. 11th ) , will get this envelope..

Its been a wonderful experience tonight to feel like I have made someones day, although I haven't got number 6 person yet to respond. Only two ladies who asked for the little bits of fabric, so if noone else responds by tomorrow afternoon, I might be making up 2 envelopes to send as a blessing to them.. It truly makes me feel worthwhile in helping when I can't do much else sometimes.. Thanks to all who have made me smile with your warm comments.. Goodnight!

I have receieved 4 requests for this little bit of scraps so far.. only two more until I get to send them out! Heres the deal, though.. if noone else PM's me by , lets say 2 pm today, I will send you 4 ladies each an envelope of little snippets.. i can always find little pieces ( as the origional offer was ) and put them inside a regular card envelope.. I will contact you with the either 6th person to ask with their mailing address, or the rest of you at 2 pm today...

CLOSED NOW.. THANKS to all who inquired about the little scraps..
Ok, bad day, turned better for 4 sweet ladies who have asked for the snippets of fabric scraps.. Closing the offer now, as noone else has wanted to become # 6 ! I will PM those who asked to get your addresses, if I haven't recieved them yet.. Thanks everyone for the encouragement yesterday, and the allowing me to joyfully pass along a little blessing to the 4 who have responded..
