The quilt had to fit in a 2 gallon Ziplock bag. The guild has moved on to other charities, but I've always liked this one, and I think I'll continue giving! Thanks for the reminder. And I love making fun things with scraps.sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15640327513033693188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984398639775623131.post-23651215064172124962018-01-16T16:42:13.748-04:002018-01-16T16:42:13.748-04:00What a generous and kind hearted person you are Ka...What a generous and kind hearted person you are Karen, love the owls idea.
