Yes I did!!!!!!!!!!! It was a Lane cedar chest. I had china and all that stuff packed in cartons but in my hope chest I had all the wonderful handmade things I made for myself for my one day house. I had sets of embroidered pillowcase, tablecloths, kitchen towels and dresser scarves. Along with crocheted afghans. It was packet to the brin. I remember having to sit on it to close it.
Thanks for bringing this up it brought back happy memories.
