I know I am grateful...I thought about making her something but like someone said I don't want her to feel like she has to make me something....

Its one of those deals if someone sends you a Thank you note for your kindness or gift - do you send them a thank you note for their note?

I'm in fabric heaven although my silly DH said "well now you can stay out of JoAnn's for awhile"...Silly Husband!

[quote=pamkasperi]I don't know much about yarn - but when my mom passed away we found boxes under her queen size bed with nothing but yarn in them - it filled 2 black lawn and garden bags...it was alot but I have no use for it....
----------------------------
Go to Michael's and get a load of what yarn sells for NOW. It is not at all cheap. Some of it will cost an arm and 3 toes to make a sweater now-a-days.

Thank your friend and tell her how much you love all your fabric.

you're lucky! Beautiful fabrics and I'm positive that your friend will love the yarn as much as you love the fabrics. Yarn isn't cheap either!!

Aren't these kind of surprises wonderful. And it's not the value of the gift...it's the giving!!

You have received something she couldn't use and she will receive something you couldn't use. You are both fortunate to have reconnected at the right time. If you can both make good use of the items, everybody wins! Enjoy!
