Ok, I only suggest this because you have 88 years of clothing, obviously made of all types of fabric. I would make a cathedral window quilt made of thin 100% cotton muslin, and put just one square of each outfit or fabric (about a 2.5" square) in each window. This is the one type of quilt that supports weird fabrics in the windows such as satin, crepe, beaded, polyester, lace, silk, etc. And in preparation you can pre cut all those clothes down to just a few squares each. You hubby will be pleased with you, as an aside. You can choose the hand sewn or machine sewn construction.
