who likes scraps?

I have a box of fabric scraps I am going to get rid of... it might be a treasure trove to someone else!

It is a 7" by 7" by 6" box full of squares and strips and charms and etc! There is quite a lot of variety of fabrics in there, pretty much all cotton...most of which are scraps of fabrics I bought at quilt shops. Some are scraps of novelty print fabrics from lesser sources (eBay, Walmart, Joann) and some are scraps or charms I got in swaps and am now sure I'm never going to use. I love scrappy quilts, but I just don't think I'm destined to make a quilt from scraps!

So, if you love this sort of thing, and if you live in the U.S. (sorry, I don't really want to discriminate here, I just don't have the time and energy to expend on figuring out international shipping right now) and you're in the directory or will send me your snail-mail address, AND (here's the catch)...you give me a great big laugh over something today (e.g. post a good joke) I will send you a present!!

Hello Marcella

Where do you live?? I live in Louisville, KY. Is there an exchange about the Marcellas?? What kind of hobby or hobbies you like to do?? I like to do counted cross-stitch, crochet, embroidery, crafts, sewing, genealogy, reading, true crime stories (in real life). Also I have a 4 1/2 yrs old son (I am 38 yrs old & married for 12 1/2 yrs now).

That was an assist for Marcie. :) Was going to post those anyway. Sorry if that wasn't clear.--

Yep, I was simply asking for a giggle in exchange. Luckily, KittyG helped you out, so the scraps have found a home! A couple of others e-mailed me some giggles too, so I will send them consolation prizes!

I see some else has already asked for them but I am always in need of scraps and so called ugly fabric for the quilts I make for animal shelters and rescues. The animals think they are all beautiful. Thanks for wanting to share your extra treasures. Jill snipped-for-privacy@webtv.net

Have you ever had one of those days? Well this is what happened to me about a week ago. I woke up to a loud thud and then some crying and a lot of pattering feet. My 1 and 1/2 year old son climbed out of his crib and was running around the house becuase he didn't know what to do. (Gladly he wasn't hurt).

A little later he decided to add to my family room decor by coloring my light colored carpet (and his PJs) with blue, green and orange marker. (Yes I was able to get it out).

So while I was trying to get that out of the carpet and after I took his PJs off I put him in his enclosed play area. As I'm cleanning the carpet I hear a "riiiiiip" sound. I look over and he is standing there, completely nude, waving his diaper around like a flag, as proud as you please. That's all I needed-- to have him decide to decorate the carpet with his poo poo.

Yes, I love being a mother. But not that day.

Hope this added joy to your day.

BTDT - and there's nothing you can do except sit back and laugh - or cry! And I've done both, thank heaven's most of those days are behind me now!

I tried to get DD#1 to come help you out, but she won't go, sorry. You'll just have to put Meg in a box and ship her here. What's one more around here?

At least DS isn't quite up to this yet, thankfully!

But he's done this one! I was changing him at the time and I learnt my lesson, and he's only got the towel on the change mat since.

I've got a lot to look forward to! :-p
