I am in awe of your work. I too have a box from DH grandmother. She made afghans but many times would test the pattern in a small block first to get her scale and determine what yarn or bedspread cotton to use. Thus pieces that are smaller than 6x6. This is a wonderful way to preserve her work. I have a number of large antique picture frames that would showcase her pieces. I forget you don't need a lot of something to preserve an item of great meaning. I do have one of my grandmothers tatted pieces mounted and framed. Thank you for showing your work.
