They don't make sheets like that any more! And it's nice to think that a sheet from Robin's Grandparents home is now being used on our bed as part of my new duvet cover. How is that for recycling!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13596754983215564299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7591608932391275570.post-13390907839153034202016-07-07T09:16:48.333+12:002016-07-07T09:16:48.333+12:00I have a bedspread that was in about 1938 or so, a...I have a bedspread that was in about 1938 or so, an embroidered tea cloth the same, and the last of the sheets from 1962, I guess they were part of what some might call " a dowry" in those days a glory box full of sheets, blankets towels and more, before we were married.

Your duvet cover looks pretty, I'm looking forward to seeing it completed.<br />I think many of us crafters and quilters would head for the linen cupboard when it comes time to deal with a loved ones belongings.
