    Quilts for Kids will be so happy to hear this. Now the problem is to sew up the quilts. LOL. I have only one done and just got the "rest" of the fabric for the next one. I better get busy, too.

My DH came up with the idea of the closet rod. {{smile}} The closed boxes below are fill of felt, fleece, home deco, canvas, tulle, etc...that are not best used in quilting. There are two small boxes of flannels (at least 1 yd +) and the larger box on end is pieces of fabric less than a yard. Keep in mind, this new stash did not fit into my sewing room.....I have encroached upon another room...hehehehe.


    A lot of kids will be very happy from the results of your DS find...Happy quilting ladies...

    Isn't it heartwarming to know there are so many wonderful people with big hearts so ready to help! Sometimes, folks just don't know how or where it is needed.

    Your collection is beautiful. Do post some of the beauties as you complete them!
