I got a wonderful box today!!! A few days ago was was ISO some blue/yellow fabric. One of our members said she had some. She emailed me the pictures, I told her it was perfect, and asked how much she wanted. She told me nothing!!! She wanted to give it to me!!! I was wonderfully thankful.

But wait...it gets better. A few months ago, I posted a picture of quilt and asked if anybody knew what the pattern was. This same generous member said she didn't know what it was but thought it wouldn't be too difficult to make one up. I haven't ever done that, so she emailed me some ideas to get started. Included in today's squishy was the pattern and all the fabric I needed to put the quilt together, for my husband. She wrote the pattern herself!!! Isn't that wonderful?!!! Here are some picures.

We have such generous people on this group that always willingly share. I'm feel so privileged to be a part of such a great group! That quilt will be simply wonderful when completed. I'm always impressed with the talent on this group that people have when choosing colors for their quilts.

Stories like this warm your heart and are so nice to hear about. I think quilters could restore your faith in humanity at least the ones on this board do!
