As a grandparent it is now a huge responsibility to display and use those vintage cloths so maybe our children and children will appreciate the true worth of a dining room table.....Midgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11669829804924671990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-37804198505498872932011-01-29T17:06:55.755-05:002011-01-29T17:06:55.755-05:00Honey I love old tableclothes too and hate that I ...Honey I love old tableclothes too and hate that I never collected them before now because now they are very pricey. lol<br />Love that you were able to get yours from the sweet lady downsizing.

I can just imagine how much it means to you. <br /><br />My mom made a lot of doilies and crocheted handkerchief edges. I had enough to give all my daughters one and I think they treasure them. It is so nice for them to have something their grandma made. <br /><br />I used to collect too. I have a lot of elephants and I too have many many Santas. I have told my kids though not to give me any more "stuff" because I just don't have room for anything else and in fact I am giving them stuff now at Christmas time that I either bought or has been in our family. They seem to like that and I'd rather do it before I die, than to have them do it after. Too much stuff to go through and distribute. <br /><br />Keep on collecting those linens!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797132860053426517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-68155586738005033002011-01-28T09:09:13.263-05:002011-01-28T09:09:13.263-05:00What a lovely story.

I loved going to grandmas she always had something fun to do when I was there. You know the fun things were just learning to cook, sew, garden, and talking. She always made me feel special. I lost her about this time of year when I was in 6th grade. Her's was the first name I took through the temple. I love the sealing blessing!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011480058598809782noreply@blogger.com
