I had a friend coming from PA to ME. She asked if I would like some of her scraps. I told her I certainly would like them but I was shocked when she arrived. She brought me 11 boxes, count em 11, office supply boxes chuck full of beautiful scraps, squares, triangles, strips, patterns, etc. Not only that, she gave me 2 Accuquilt dies that I didn't have. With the economy the way it is and fabric prices going higher, I was blessed with this friend.

Thank you Sue, you're the greatest. :-D

When I read your topic title I thought this was going to be another bad day story. I am so glad that I was wrong. It's nice to see someone hit the jackpot, and even nicer that your friend thought of you to gift it to.

sewingsuz 04-19-2011 07:35 PM

Wow, they don't make those kind anymore, hard to find. Not for what she gave you but how generous of her. She is priceless.

It's like hitting the lottery!
