I would like to clean and press them, sort them, etc.
Well guess what I found? I found two rolls of wool batting that came from my Aunt Peggy, now deceased. The receipt was in the bag with the batting, dated July 16, 1988. The total for the batting was $90.30. A lot of the scraps in my stash came from Aunt Peggy. So I will use the batting for the crumb quilt (quilts?) I plan to make.
