Oh My! That does make me shudder with disgust! Still, there are so many that simply do not realize the treasures in fabric and "handmade". I find that most of this generation and their friends simply use something till it's used up and then toss, get another and go on. Very few treasure the "old" anymore. Sad to me as I have carefully preserved some very old quilts that my ancestors made. Now I'm afraid no one is going to want them when I die....I think this realization hurts me more than anything. I also had earlier had some old pieces of furniture refinished (they were at least 100 yrs. old). Now, nobody wants them so when I go, I suppose they will be donated to Goodwill....sigh.......just the way it is....
