WAY TOO FUNNY Marcia!
This so sounds like me. Are you a twin? Ever have a feeling you were seperated at birth?
From a quilting diva :mrgreen: named Marcia :D :!: :) 8) 8) as well.
:mrgreen:
Hoping you "get your good stuff" right away.

Both of my daughters are excited because they know I cannot use 26 yards of fabric a month-so I will be sharing with them too.
The owner also told me that she would like for me to make shop samples sometimes. She will give me the fabric and the pattern, I will make the top, she will supply the batting and backing, send it out to be quilted, and when she is finished using it in the shop as a sample--I get to have it!! Isn't that a sweet deal????
I am really excited---one day a week for all that fabric. What more could a girl ask for? :lol: :lol:

I saw this post and just had to reply even if it was days later. If you think about it, 26 yards of fabric would make two queen size quilts. So you could use that fabric up each month if you quilt a lot. If I didn't have those other annoying responsibilities like cleaning the house, babysitting grandkids (although I love them to death!) cooking, laundry. Well, you all get the picture, That fabric would be gone each month and sefish me wouldn'd need to worry about sharing the fabric, but I would give my quilts away when I finished. Isn't that why we quilt?
