    A great day for yard sales and I came across all this for $8.
    Most of the smaller pieces are at least 18x22, the black and beige fabric is 4 yds, the kittens 3 yds, the pink 3 yds and the flowers 3 yds. The pattern were a bonus and I have no interest in making any of them, so once my status becomes "regular" again I will post them for sale. The felt, batting and plastic sheets (I forgot what they are called) were also included.

    My status on the board fell to inactive since I have not been on here regularly to post and I feel like I have fallen behind on my projects since my surgery. I am slowly getting back to being a little more active (I hemmed my son's curtains for him). I get too tired, too fast and have spent most of the days sleeping; which is what the doctor suggests for now. Since it was major surgery and very invassive (I can't even lift anything heavier than a telephone book), I will just have to do a little at a time until I am fully recovered. Family have pitched in and for that I am very grateful.

    Anyway, I am just tickled what I got and my stash is growing now very rapidly. Boy do I have a selection. I think I see a log cabin in the future.

    1st - great news that you are recovering! I just had surgery too and i am also dissapointed in myself in my lack of energy -- but you're right it's exactly what the dr. tells us. I try to stay "up" by reminding myself how much better I'll feel when i'm all healed up.

    2nd - congrats on your haul! that's a great big ray of sunshine~!

    Wow! You made out like a bandit, as my stepdad would say! :mrgreen:
    Just a reminder, in case you didn't know/remember, messages on classifieds and PM's DO NOT Count toward becoming a regular again! (I thought PM's did, and fell off recently.)
    Just go down the page of unread topics, reply briefly to lots of them, and you can be a "regular" again in one or two evenings!
    No lifting required!
