    I took Flat Stanley to the Golden Gate Bridge and it was cold and foggy that day. He could have used a quilt then, but I wasn't clever enough to make one for him! :(

    I have a friend who started a "Flat Stanley". She sent it to another friend, and so on and so forth. It's been going on for about 6 months now, I think. She said she thought about sending him here, but wasn't sure if he'd make it out in one piece. lol

    My niece sent me a Flat Stanly about 15 years ago and our family had a great time with him. It was Fall, so we look him to a pumpkin patch and let him pick out his very own little pumpkin. We made a little book about all of his adventures and included pics. My niece loved it.

    I was not a quilter then, so I did not make him a quilt---what a precious idea Barb!!! She is going to love it!!!
