Lois, Ann
Those are great stories. Love hearing stories, memories like that.
I take it you don't have any of those special clothes in your ownership.
Thanks for sharing!! -
None of those clothes in my collection, we wore them out, outgrew them and gave them to someone smaller or cut them up to make something else. Everythiing was used at our house except the squeal of the pig when he was butchered or the squack of the chicken. And we never threw something away that might have another use. That is why I am still accused of being a "pack rat" and that was long before I knew anything about a "stash".

Same here. I don't have any of the clothing. Hand me downs would have been given to cousins. Although there might be a scrape of the fabric with some of my mother's sewing stuff. I am thinking I might have that doll packed away somewhere.

Thanks for getting us back on track! Yes, Melissa, I am wondering how you are coming along with that quilt top.Comment

I do wish I could say I have started it but I haven't. I'm working hard to FINALLY finish hand quilting a queen/king sized Tennesse Waltz. I'm about to reach the borders! I've promised myself not to let another project come between me and this quilt's completion (holding my own feet to the fire). I'm enclosing a not very good cell phone picture of a portion of the Tenessee Waltz project.

I know it used to be almost taboo to "machine" quilt a top, but I believe those days are gone. There are some very good machine quilters and some lovely patterns. It's your quilt top anyway, do what works for you!
