I know how you feel. I just opened a large storage bin/tote that I hadn't checked in years and found at least a hundred neatly ironed fat quarters.

Wished I could say that! Getting depressed because I can't buy like I used to. lol My son and his four kids moved in with me and money is tight now. Thank goodness for yard sales. Their scraps are my quilts. lol

It must be a bad time for people named Syl. My best friend just found out that she will be taking temporary custody of her great grandchild and her sewing room will need to become the baby's room and her sewing room is reduced toa a glassed in porch. I will light a candle for both of you in hopes that things get better quickly.

Enjoy your 'find'. Happy quilting.

It seems like everyone is having a hard time. We're going back to intergenerational homes where two or three generations live together. Maybe something good will come out of this turmoil; closer families for starters. Just hope that things work out for you and your son's families. At least you have your glassed-in porch to work on. Hang in there and just keep on creating beautiful things.

That's better than finding spare change in the couch cushions.
