Do you want the good news first or the bad news?

I sometimes wonder what the end of a story is, so here is the end of this one. This quilt was intended for our accountant as a thank you for all his hard work. I made it about 10" bigger adding a border around the front, a stripe down the middle of the back and a border top and bottom on the back and it was becoming the "quilt from hell" but I quilted it myself and only finished it about 2 weeks ago. He came over on Monday. I think he did appreciate it as he told us about looking at one this summer and almost buying it but when he went back for a second look he realized that there were a number of worn and frayed spots. It was also funny that he found a piece that had a bit of writing on it - the word giggles. He has a funny last name and when he was a kid apparently the other kids called him Giggles. I must admit I am glad to see it gone.

Someone advised me years ago to box up old stuff, seal and date the box. If you haven't opened the box after a year, then dispose. Whatever you do, don't open the box.
I just know the thing, whatever the thing is that is in the box, it will be needed exactly a week after the box is gone.
