Thanks for sharing your cherished pictures. I have decided to add vintage sewing notions to my sewing rm decor. Its alot of fun looking for these items. I recently have really gotton into the history behind quilting, its really interesting reading.Yes makes us wonder why we need all the latest gadgets when these ladies had so little.

THey never smiled because they had bad teeth. That was a question I asked my grandmother when we looked over all her old photos.

I think it is fun looking at how they sewed and quilted way back when. They didn't have the fancy rulers that we have today and they must have cut out the pieces for thier block with just a pair of scissors that weren't very sharp as there wasn't much in those days either. No embroidery machines and it was all done by hand. Great pictures, Huggies, Fay
