Well she brought some of it over here yesterday and wow did she have a lot. Some of the fabric was yardages and some of it was scraps and a box full of patterns! The patterns are mostly made of cereal boxes and things like that. I can't wait to go through them. I'll have to get tubs for the fabric and then find a place for it!! I am so grateful that I now have something that belong to my mamaw!!
OH! how you will charish each item in her quilting things. I got all of my mothers quilting things, scrapes , unfinished quilt tops, some had to be from my grandmother. Mother made a lot by hand others on the sewing machine. enjoy and treasure them.
