I remember my Grandma in the 'Hills of WV' collecting unwanted coats. She would cut them and sew them in a flat sheet then she would put pieced tops on them and tie them. One of my first hem jobs was on her binding. Never knew what happened to all those HEAVY quilts, might be glad. But wool was her choice of inside stuff, as she called it. Thanks for bringing this up. Great memory jolt!
