I was recently given material that was my husbands aunt who passed away. I found several different feed sack material pieces. Any ideas what to do with them? I'm so glad to have them. Does anyone use them in a quilt now or should I just keep them. they don't seem to be worn or fragile. They are thicker than our cottons today.

Stolen Idea: Sometime back, I saw a framed display of wedding dress fabric. The bride saved clippings and later added her mother's and hoped to one day add her daughter's.
This idea made me think??? why not frame it. How big is it? I remember them being less than a yard after they were washed. Mom and Grandma use to have tea towels made from them, we have even used them for table scarves for end tables, and crochet edging.
Blessings, Ruth
