Three bottles of bourbon.
It would take three boxes of liquor for me to get through all of that................. :) :)

Everything unwanted and smaller than that was given away. Small! But there were tons of people who wanted them. It takes a long time for a scrap quilter to have enough scraps to give away, but I feel so clean and happy now.

I don't really have that much stash in the sewing room---it is the cluttery "things" that I have accumulated through the years that I can't get rid of because they remind me of who gave them to me or I remember where I was when I got it and who was with me!

I am making a strip quilt then my scraps are going to go..I am tired of looking at the same fabric..strip after strip..but my 3 sacks don`t seem to go down..no matter how much I sew..I do get tired of the fabric that I have..sometimes I wish I did not have so much..but then with fabric going up..maybe I will be glad..our goodwill will not take fabric..last week I gave 6 grocery bags to free cycle..they seemed very appriciate to get it..
