Wonderful Wednesday

Would you like to eat supper with us tonight?  There will be plenty of what's cooking on my stove.  See---


Oh, that's not the pot of chili we're having!  That's some muslin I'm dyeing in coffee.  I haven't tried coffee before, it's suppose to be a warm brown.  Black tea gives it a golden yellow glow.  
Late last night I was going through the mail that had arrived while I was gone.  Most of it I expected until I got to this box--

It was very heavy.   When I opened it this is what I saw---
SCRAPS!!  I almost kissed that box!


Here they are unpacked on my washer--



See all those wonderful pieces??!!  I can sew a whole QUILT using them.  And yes, I have a PLAN for them.  


And the wonderful person who sent me their scraps---Mary Kay!  Thank you Mary-Kay--you've made me so happy!  All I want to do is sew!

Think I'll pass on the coffee-dyed muslin for supper, but you better lock your door tonight because I might sneak in and lift your new box of scraps. LOL Looks like there are quite a feww...bet you get more than one quilt out of them.
