Look what i got on free cycle a lady was giving away quilt scraps and some embroidery blocks. I told her I would love to have them please if no one had beat me asking. When I went to pick them up I thanked her, and told her I couldn't believe some one didn't beat me asking for them. She said they did, but she picked me. She said God told her to give them to me. I was the only one that said please. They was 6 pkgs. of easy triangle papers,2 quilt blocks of quilt blocks cross stitched by plaid,a lap quilt or wall hanging,by jack dempseym needle art,a baby quilt top cross stitch ark and friends. Also a small bag of maxine fabric. I was so excited to get it out of the box, I have not opened all the bags yet. there was also 4 pieces of yardage different prints. Isn't God Good? don't it pay off to say please and thank you.

Enjoy!!!!!!! That is a nice story too. I know many people even complain when they are gifted something free. Unbelievable. A plain honest thank you is normal in my book when some one gives you something.
