[quote=I have threads that say $.15 on the ends!!! my grandmother lived thru the depression, she never threw anything out! So I have thread that she bought at Woolworth's in probably the 40's and 50's, and because of the way she stored it, I am still working on using it up :)[/quote]
Me too! When taking the worn fabric out of our vintage quilts made in the 30's, 40's the thread in the quilting and piecing is still good. And these quilts have been well used and washed often.
