How preciously beautiful! What a grand idea! And you're right about linens not lasting long in a linen closet. My grandmother had beautiful handkerchiefs that we gave her but she wouldn't use them because she was "saving them for special occasions." She started using some of them after some dry rotted in the Texas heat of the linen closet. So glad you made such good use of yours.

That quilt is enough to bring me to tears. It is gorgeous and what a treasure. I'm glad you FMQ'd it instead of using the embroidery machine. It is your art along with your Mother's art.

What a great idea. I was given a set of pillowcases from each of my great aunts back in the 70's that they had each embroidered. I hadn't thought about making a quilt out of them. I think they may be my next big project! Love your quilt by the way.
