Let's try this again.... I ALWAYS wanted one... When each of my daughters turned 16, I bought them each one. I tried to teach them t crochet and embroidery but neither would have anything to do with either! I would bet my oldest no longer has hers, and probably second one doesn't either....some traditions are so sad to loose!
When my fiance's mother passed away several years ago, my fiance gave me her hope chest....then I lost him also,so this one really has special meaning to me!
