In my next life, I want to be a French woman living in Paris (but, of course, having spent my childhood in the countryside, maybe in the Loire Valley).

I wanted to make a quilt with indigo blues and tans but couldn't find any fabric I liked. However, one day at the Good Will, I stumbled upon the men's shirt section and found lots of wonderful fabric with unique patterns and colors. I love quilt shop fabrics, but sometimes, it seems like it all looks too much alike. So I was excited when I found these. I want to make a strip quilt out of them one day. They are all 100% cotton.

I found this lovely bookcase for $15 at the Good Will, too. I want to paint it the color of blue-green seaglass and use it in Sadie's room. Sam's room is already packed to maximum capacity.

A seagrass sewing basket.

Two bags.

A lovely 50 cent blue green bowl holding my magnets.

Tins that are 99 cents each. I love them for crayons or embroidery thread or general minutia.

Another old basket that I have full of markers now. Lord, I do love other people's junk.
