    Please go to Bonnie Hunters site Quiltville.com and learn how to handle your scraps while they are in their infantile stage. You will be so happy to get it under control from the beginning. Merry Christmas...

    Not only do I just go to the fabric store store in my quilting room, I advise my friends if they are looking for something special....check my stash. As of January 1, 2013 I am only buying fabric for backing. (She said hopefully.)
