    Most of the pieces are a nice size...If I put them all togethr I'd probably get a Full size out of it...They were all pinned together in 3 big batches so when I got home I was so surprised to find the bigger piece. There's abt 3 other strips that are 36x12...several 24 x 24....Some small pieces have wear in some of the sqs but I'll cut those out and use the remaider in the bigger quilt I'll eventually make. Some are even hand stitched onto muslin...

    And trust me ladies...it really ate at me Sat...abt having to leave that treadle and I did try again Sun...But I just don't have the strength anymore for heavy things...I'm sure someone came along to give it a good home for that price who could resist...OH that would be ME...but it still hurts...
