Out of the dozens of us in the charitable group, only a handful of us are quilters and even sewing and quilting as fast as we can..well, we can't do it all or use all of it up so we share the bounty just as we do everything else. Smiles and hugs right back, dear friend.Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36789084.post-70145275835502007282016-04-16T04:44:37.806-07:002016-04-16T04:44:37.806-07:00Bless your heart, Alice.

You girls are certainly doing a wonderful job of using up those panels. The gals at my guild also make some lovely quilts from the printed panels for charity. All it takes is a little creativity and those printed fabrics can be used up....but I don't know about that many van loads. That may take a few years to use up!!!<br /><br />Smiles,<br />KellyIHaveANotion ~ Kelly Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07368085552525311127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36789084.post-41514446053750456982016-04-11T12:02:19.557-07:002016-04-11T12:02:19.557-07:00What a gift!
