Oh my goodness, what wonderful finds! I'm not as generous as you 'cause if I scored that I wouldn't be sending it to my swap partner. I'd be sweet talking the quilts and the spools would be in a jar...okay, I could share some spools. Now I feel selfish, sigh. But not so much that I'd pass my treasures on lol.

LOL, no don't feel selfish at all! I have a huge glass jar filled with wooden spools and that is plenty for me, I have to be honest these quilts are incredibly well worn the one is very very comfy feeling, I might just find myself being attached to it. I will have to think about the quilt but I definitely will share my wooden spools and other antiqueish sewing notions that I have come up on. I just don't want to send something to someone who would not want them, they can pay them forward but would hate to ever know if they were just thrown away when there is always someone who would want them... OK enough rambling!! :mrgreen:

He seemed so nice, hard to believe he would steal...
Can I say I didn't know where he got the stuff :?: :shock:
And do I need a lawyer or something??? :XD: :XD:

You don't need a lawyer, siki. I can tell you what to do. You know the best thing to do with stolen itmes is to donate them to a good cause, look around the board,specifically at a name that appears underneath my words, and you will find your cause :XD: :lol:

Oh, Thank you Candi, because YOU know I would believe whatever you tell me! :mrgreen: Do you need fabric and my ruler too???? Or just the alleged stolen property?

She wants all your sewing machines, too.

NO BUGS.
Still sad. Going out to dinner with friends.
They are good to me.
Unlike other people around here.

Hugs for Krystyna. Frogs legs in chocolate are a huge delicacy in France. Apparently they taste like chicken. Mexicans cook a lot with chocolate.

I am not French. And we eat FREEDOM FRIES here!

She also made me a needle/pin case in bright colors. I like it!
Lots of Werthers, regular and carmel filled, and I have been eating them all afternoon and now feel pretty sugar loaded.
Thanks, Kathy. I like everything!

Simply lovely. I will let you keep it.

Krystyna I'm sure there's nothing in my package that you would want or I would send it to you...

Not nice to fib.

Wish I knew you gals liked wooden spools. Just tossed a pile. I have tons of vintage thread on them, so I'll start saving again.

Just tried to help a friend tonight with her Yamata piece of junk sewing machine that someone gave her. Told her to throw it out. I then gave her my Tailor (Singer made in Poland for school use) but I couldn't figure out the tension. Told her to take it to the nice ladies at Joann tomorrow. And ... happily the decluttering continues! Couldn't get her to take the table. I'm down to five machines. Now to get rid of the treadle.
