Sew Some Love Sunday - Lutheran World Relief - The First Box has Arrived!!!

Welcome to another edition of Sew Some Love Sunday!!  Earlier this week, the first box arrived for Lutheran World Relief.  It went right into quarantine, along with our other mail.

Today was mail processing day...

I was a bit confused when my "small gift" from Wendy @ Constant Quilter arrived.  In return for the block I sent for her Community Supper quilt, this large Priority Mail box arrived:

Inside that HUGE box was some yardage:

Along with the yardage, some scraps:


She also sent TWO HUNDRED 10.5" squares!!!  That's enough to make FOUR quilt tops for Lutheran World Relief:

Thank you, Wendy!  I can't imagine what a BIG gift would have looked like, if this was your idea of a small gift.  I greatly appreciate your participation in my collection effort.  It was the BEST gift you could possibly have given me!

Of course, postage funds would also be appreciated.  Judging from the first box, shipping our quilts is going to be WAY more expensive than I anticipated!  Any help toward lessening that blow to the budget would be greatly appreciated.
