Have to share a funny story:
A long time ago I was visiting a rather elderly retired nurse and noticed a lovely quilt on the back of her couch. It was made from individual little puff pockets. I asked her about it and she told me when she was working at the hospital they would have to take the sanitary napkins used For the new mothers and put them in the auto clave to sterilize them before using them. Of course there were always a few napkins which were scorched because the auto claves in those days were less than accurate in their temperature settings. She hated to have to throw them out so she took them home and covered each one with fabric When she had enough to make a row she sewed them together and then eventually into a full lovely scrappy quilt. Of course she said she could never wash it as it would fall apart so she would just throw that one out and start another!
I smile every time I am reminded of that quilt . Thanks for todays smile!
