Yep, that's what I have.....a huge box and shelves filled with different items for my Secret swap boxes. Also have shelves of different colors of fat quarters so I can just grab the colors my Secret Pal wants. I start building my box even before Lori sends out the names and once I have my SP name and their special wants, those are the last minute purchases I make. This is a lot of fun and makes me feel like Christmas or my birthday has come again every month when my box arrives. LOL

Wandalou, will send prayers and hugs your way. This must be a difficult time and I"m glad you're participating. Krystyna I'll have a margarita for you today! Then again I won't stop at o ne! lol! Ok today is the day I tackle and set up my sewing room. We are expecting over 100 degrees here and its humid! So we're having a BBQ this afternoon and I will be enjoying myself! Like all of you I have a stash just for my sp and its much easier! Everyone have a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day. Don't forget to keep all of our servicemen and women in prayer. My son is in Korea and he's doing well.

did you just guess mary josephine? wow how lucky is that? josephine is a maternal family name dating back to the very early 1800's (if not earlier) and i am one of them in a long line of josephines.

i made headway in my organizing yesterday so i am feeling a little bit better today but will still be organizing today. i have even starting bringing stuff in from my car. i have things to get listed on ebay and i found a group on cl looking for donated items to sell to raise money for some cause (i forgot). so i have called the woman and have things ready for her to pick up (including fabric i will not be using). yep i have been an organizing guru. i have plenty of pomegrante tea to keep me going today.

i am even considering listing one of my singer 15-91's for sale. yes i am as my purging/organizing continues. anyone here interested in a vintage singer 15-91? they are great machines and you can fmq on them. think about it.

p.s. to sweetwaterquilter: those suck bags work great and they are see through. if you stagger the fabric when packing it in there you will be able to see what you have without opening it.
