What a collection. Will be waiting to see what you come up with for the quilt, wall hanging or whatever. They are beautiful, sure that what ever you come up with will only enhance the blocks. BrendaK

Ohhhh wow you are so lucky!!! I love love molas!!!! Enjoy!!!!

I would not iron them as it will iron the odor right into the beautiful mola. I would air them after spraying with something like fabreeze....good luck.....wonderful collection

What an amazing collection of wonderful blocks. You know someone spent many hours stitching these together. And I know you are sad that your friend passed.... while excited that you were chosen to give these beautiful artworks a new life.

I wouldn't wash them before sewing them together.... please post pictures when it's complete.

Awesome! Thanks for introducing me to this unique culture. My only suggestion would be to make a color photocopy of each and play around with designs. If you decrease the size it might be easier. What might be nice is a quilt, matching pillows and maybe some detail added to curtains.

Fabulous!! you could even put a few into a long wall hanging. great decoration.

WOW they are wonderful!

Those are fabulous! I would be tempted to use groups of them as wall hangings rather than put the lot together in a large quilt. I would experiment with a few to see if airing out will do the job, or rinsing out by hand and drying flat.

What a treasure trove!! These will make several quilts I would think. I don't know how to prepare them but they are absolutely fabulous, so colorful and interesting!!!!!!

If you spray them with Fabreze use the unscented and see how it goes. What I would do it is combine Woolite and baking soda into a large container and just mush them up and down gently or just let them soak. Then I would rinse really well and lay them on a towel and roll up. Then unroll shape and let them dry.
