I'm having a hard time parting with some fabric but at the same time I'm wondering if it's going to be any good when I finally have the time to get to it. I'm thinking that will be in 13 years or so when my little one turns 18! :?
Thoughts?
Golly I hope not. I have some skirts and pjs,imbroiderd scarfs. That I entend to use in quilts one day. They aren't Fabric like fat quarters or anything. But the skirts were when they were teens and some baby clothes were my 2 DD and they will be..youngest 46 ,next Friday the 8th. the oldest 47...18 days later Tuesday the 26th.
I have everything stored in one of those bags you use the vacume to suck all the air out and it makes it smaller. Then I have them in a drawer so they don't get light. The bags aren't too exspensive at walmart. Thats what I would do if I had material that old. My opinion, hope I gave you an idea.

I have some fabric that is over 50 years old that I plan to turn into a quilt. It was my daughter's great grandmothers fabric. She had cut it up to make a
Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt and never got around to it. My ex-MIL gave it to me and I plan to make a couple of table runners for each of my girls from it. The fabric still looks excellent and is in great shape.
