  1. Wow, quite an extensive wardrobe! You deserve to be extremely proud of yourself. I especially love all the bright, wide variety of prints. Great job.

  2. I think that trading quilts for garments sounds prudent right now. If your linen cabinet is anything like ours, it's overflowing with blankets and quilts (and the kids don't outgrow them). Clothes are much more practical and new ones are needed much more often. Great job on all of your 2017 accomplishments!
