I have begun to sort, wash, iron & toss . Will share with my Bee and Lynnie. Leftovers go to Textile Recycling.
Oh yes, there was a Featherweight 324 in one of the boxes. No charge, by the way. I am calling myself a Textile Archaeologist. The "Hanky Holder" was a real find. Never saw one before. Wish you all were here!
Wish I lived closer...looks like so much fun!!!

I hope to be capable of make all the clues!
