S U R P R I S E !

Look what came out of a bag of donated "rug material"!  As I was taking pieces of textile out of the big black garbage bags the donation came in, I admit, I was a little disappointed.  The pieces I was finding were small or, quite frankly, gross.

Until I came to this --  That's when I got excited. 

And then I got a little more excited when the next thing below it was this,

Another quilt top ---

Both are in great shape except for a few small repairs that need to be done before I can finish them into actual quilts.  

From this little escapade I have learned to not give up when the beginnings look a little disappointing...
