They are all beautiful - and it looks like they're still as brightly colored as the day they were embroidered! I suspect your grandmother was like mine and saved them 'for good.' Both my grandma and mom had unused, embroidered linens in drawers when they passed. Imagine how old they are - Mom was 92 when she died in '05 - and they're too delicate, though still as brightly colored as yours. I hope someone on this thread will suggest ways for you - and me - to display AND preserve them. I don't want to keep them hidden away in a drawer!
