Well I dont want to be greedy but I am a quilter so I said anything you have to do with quilting I'll take it. Can't wait to see what else is in store. I am truly blessed.
    If I were you, I would gladly accept anything and everything she wanted to give to me. Assure her that you will pass on anything you can't use to local community charities that make quilts for children or elders. This way all of her collection will be used and not just stockpiled in someones home. :wink:

    Wowee, the blessings came your way.

    Unbelievable someone spent that kind of money on items and is getting rid of it all! Does she no longer quilt/sew? Wonder why.

    It sure looks as though the Lord sent one of his Angles your way, give him the prase and her a mighty big Hug. :D

    How exciting! I'm so happy for you. Let us know if you get just too much and would like to sell some fabric.
