    That was so nice of her to do that for you. My husband and I used to come to Monticello to race horse's. It has changed over the years.

    Bless your heart for this project. It is so nice to think of all the children who will benefit from this as well as parents. Loved the write up about you in the paper. June/Mo

She donated all of her 2 yard samples that the fabric company sends her to me for future Quilts for Kids. Three plastic tubs full -- how awesome!!! Now to get off this quilting board and get sewing!
    I saw the article in my local paper!!!Great job!!

    What a great story! How lucky that they saw the article and donated 3 tubs full of fabric! It is going to be put to good use!
