    I have 6 yards of navy Pendleton wool from 1961. My mom bought it at the Pendleton factory , I have no idea what she planned for it, and I don't have any ideas for it either. Suggestions would be welcome.

    I'd be making a jacket starting tomorrow morning. For you!

    I bought ten yards of bright green cotton and ten yards of a bright green, orange, yellow print to make a Hearts and Gizard quilt in 1968. I made a few blocks, used much of the rest of it in 1988 for clown suits for my kids, used more in countless scrap quilts and a Re-do quilt this past winter and still have some left. This is truly the never ending fabric! Can you pick it out in my quilt as I show it off at my guild meeting?
