Can you imagine the comments when the undertakers association starts comparing notes and there are suddenly a zillion requests for favorite quilt fabric liners for coffins????

I literally laughed out loud!!! Just too funny for words!

Heck, that's the major problem I have. If I'd only "unlove" the fabric, I might get some quilting done.

This could open up a whole new business!

I sure do...a lot of them. I just cant seem to cut into them. However, who says you have to? Do stamp collectors use their stamps to pay bills?

Don't tell my hubby, but I have lots. I bought some CUTE halloween fabric back in June to make a quilt but its so cute I don't want to cut it up

I had a piece of silver and aqua silk brocade that I carried around various moves over ten years, because I could not cut into it. I would just pet it and try to dream up a way to use it that was 'worthy' of such a gem. When I left Texas, to return to Oregon, A lovely Japanese friend was helping me pack, and she found it. She held it and cried in the middle of my floor. It was very old you see, and it reminded her of 'home'. She is happily wearing it as a dress for special occasions. I never knew I was saving it for that moment. I regret nothing. Sometimes, ya just gotta say "What the heck, here!" ( I would probably still be carrying it around anyway, I'm just too timid to risk ruining that much silk. I'm glad she wasn't)

How sweet of you to save it all those years just to give it to who had been waiting for it all along. :thumbup:

What a lovely thing to have happen. You'll keep smiling every time you think of that piece of fabric and how it ended up in loving hands.

The same here. None of these daughters sew, either!!
