Waterloo Region Record 3 Oct 2011 _______________________ Stash Busting Thank you to everyone who stepped forward at the February meeting to help deal with the miscellaneous items that once belonged to Bev Bechthold. I apologize to those who attended in the evening only, as there was nothing left at the end of the afternoon! It was heartening to see that the fabric will be going to many good places. If you would consider taking a picture of some of your projects, or have stories to share, I would love to pass them along to Blain Bechtold, who didn't want to see Bev's things go to waste. You may be wondering why there weren't larger pieces of fabric. I volunteer at the women's prison, working with inmates who are making comforters that go to MCC and sent around the world. These women don't often get nice fabrics to work with. I took two boxes of anything larger than 8"x8" for them to cut into 8" or 10" squares. They have been very industrious, and appreciative of this gold mine. The recent comforters are quite attractive! I was sorely tempted to slip some of my own stash into this offering, when I saw how easy it was to find people eager to use up other people's "scraps"! Is there anyone who would like a LOT of 1.5" squares, including a large full cookie tin that has them paired, ready for sewing 9-patch blocks that finish at 3"x3"? Emily Hunsberger.
