    I believe home made glycerian soap! I make it, and it does sweat a bit when its hot. I think the first one has a piece of luffa in it!

    NO!!! I wouldnt. Not unless you wrap them in something, because they have dyes in them. If the dyes bleed, you could ruin a beautiful quilt!
    They are very pretty though!

    Can you get some dried lavender or cedar chip anywhere? That would help on the moths!

    I would suggest this, too. Definitely don't use the soaps. ;)

    Sure looks like glycerin soap to me! I'm sure it smells nice, but as a previous poster said, don't put it with your quilts! Wouldn't want a quilt to get ruined from the oils or dyes in the soap.
