    Sounds like you made a new friend today, and I really like the block and frame too. I am sure the old fellow was glad to see it go to someone who will love it.

    It is good to see that there are still people in the world who are willing to share the love.

    How wonderful that a kind generous person like you was gifted a beautiful block like that and that frame is exquisite. He more than likely felt better all day than you did.

    I have no idea as to how many yard sales we hit. We started at 8am and had only gone 40 miles by 1pm. It way too hot out there or we would have kept going.
    There was a lot of stuff! I found a church that had fabric but no one could give me a price on each piece plus all of it was smelly and dirty but for the right price I would have bought a lot and washed it really good. Needless to say I'm sure it's all still sitting there.
