You made a great trade. Your work on the quilt is beautiful.
10990Deanna I just looked at your quilt and it looks great!. You did a fantastic job on it and that was a great trade. Hugs /Lillian

ooooh...He was cutting my trees from asplandh and i just happened to ask if he knew anyone that cut trees...he did it on the side...
45070Well done Deanna. The quilt has turned out beautifully. We've just had massive storms up here in Newcastle and the Tree loppers are in great demand! It was a great barter - but I think you got the better deal. Love Chris
234253The wallhanging looks fantastic and I think it was a great deal. It would be more likely $5000 to have the trees cut down here -including them being insured etc.

I am pleased with not having to pay money out. my time doesn't really cost me that much...I enjoy doing crafts. I kept worrying that 1 tree would fall on the house while my grand daughter was here.
173580You did a lovely job on the quilt. That was a lot of quilting. I'd say you both got good deals. Good that everyone is happy! My sister just paid $4000 to have a huge oak tree taken down close to their house and the guy got to keep the wood.

Owwww. i actually asked the secretary at our church if she knew of anyone that needed wood. one of the guys came out and actually cleaned up the wooded area in the corner pof our property. there were a few smaller trees down. He then helped cut, load. rake, burn. and clean up the area after they were done. struck a GREAT DEAL there...free labor.

Its really a large wall hanging. I hope she does. the man must care extremely a lot for her. i would be shocked to get something from my son like this.
