Help with Very Old patches
I was given a whole bag of 9 patch blocks and also a whole bunch of Sunflower blocks. My friend is in her 70's and she said these were her mothers, so they are very old. I need to get material to make the centers of the sunflower patches. Could someone please help me to find either feed bags or repo. fabric? I'm sure there are websites out there. Thanks for your help. Oh just as a side note. These patches had been somewhere in moth balls and they really reek. I know I have to be careful in trying to get out the smell, any hints on how to do it. Right now they are hanging in my garage. There were also alot of patterns and other paper things in the bag. Everything smells bad. I think breathing in this stuff is not a good thing. Sorry this got so long.
