    as my family well knows. My daughter was telling a tale about her growing-up years: "If I didn't like any of my clothes, I would just drop them in the mending basket. Problem solved. I never saw them again."
    I love your Picasso quote and a few of my kids would identify with your daughter's tale.

    I'll try to post a picture in a day or so - no time today - gotta finish a baby quilt due on Monday!


    I checked out the site, those are the cutest little guys. I'm sure your guild will love their gifts!
