    Because today, I received three more packages from my quilting buddies Cathy M and Cordelia!!!!!!!!!!

    Just look at the fantastic fabrics they have sent over!!

    OOOOOOOOHHHH I got to stroke Minkie!!! (Thanks Cathy - what a lovely feel it has!!)


    A special thankyou is winging over to Cathy, as she has included a personal gift for one of our members who is going through difficult time right now....I can't wait to see her face tomorrow!!!!!!!!!

    :D :D :D
    Thank you soooooo much Cordelia and please give my special thanks to your Mom for donating too!!!!, I will never tire of sending my gratitude to all of my friends who have taken part in this appeal... I really have no doubt you must be the most generous nation in the world :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :-D

    These are the superb fabrics sent from Cordelia and her Mom!!! Those beige fabrics on the left have a beautiful gold going through them!!

    Check out ALL those 10" squares - I haven't counted but I guestimate there must be 200 or so!!! AND just look at the pinky minky!!!!

    Wahoo for you Izy- I'm glad the boxes made it to you in one piece :):) Of course, if the mailman dropped the one box, he would have been picking up pieces of fabric forever :):) The 10 inch squares are the same size of what we buy as 'layer cakes' here in the states. I'm also happy you like the minkee too! To me, it was hard to sew after sewing cotton, but it probably was just the operator of the sewing machine hahahaa....

    Cathy, I can imagine you will have to be very careful, as I think it will probably stretch abit, its very similar to the soft baby fleece I used on the back of the crumb quilt, and it was a pain...but worth it as it is soooooo soft!! :D Thanks again :D
