Isn't it just so much fun to be a recipent of other people's "cast offs". In this case you made a wonderful haul and I know you will put it to use. You will certainly have a lot of fun with all your new founds treasures.

Really I was thinking of taking the cute part out and putting it into something else. I'm not one for vests but I LOVE that little sewing machine she made on there! ;)[/quote]

I think you hit the jackpot!! How fun! I love that little sewing machine too....does anyone know where you can get a free pp pattern of that?

AUQuilter 07-13-2011 05:55 AM

You were meant to have those things for sure. Looks like you will be busy for awhile. Very pretty options.

FroggyinTexas 07-13-2011 07:03 AM

What a great gift! I love getting half-done projects or starts that someone got tired of so that I can finish them. Some of my favorite quilts were started by someone who just got tired of the pattern, the fabric or whatever. DNF

You won the Jackpot! Congrats! Have fun with all your new stuff!

Wow. You hit the jackpot. How exciting!!

You can get white newsprint end rolls usually at your local newspaper company. Mine charges $5 and there is enough on there to last a very long time.
