Several years ago I started collecting Crown Royal bags. I used to go to all the Bars in our town and the neighboring towns to collect all I could. They named me the bag lady. Sometimes I would get just a few and other times I would come home with more than a hundred. By the time I had quit collecting, I had about 1500 bags. Some large and some regular size. I also have about 100 specialty bags. Racing teams and such. I made several quilts one for a wedding present that took over 200, and some to donate, and many pillows and quilts for friends and family. I enjoy making these so much. I still had, as of today maybe 1000 bags. Well, the guys went to town today and made a good hit. They brought me 399 more. I can quilt to my hearts content. I will put them to good use. I thought I had pictures of some of them but couldn't find them. Anyway. It was just like Christmas. Thanks Guys, Good Hit. Whoo Hoo!!!
