    You are right on the dates. My mom use to make us clothes & she used those colors for tops. The holly one is about 1975 to 1979 because I made a Christmas tree skirt using it. My sister made a table cloth out of the multi colored patchwork. It would make a cute quilt.

    Gosh ... How fun to see these old fabrics! I have a very few littel bits of it in my scraps from the same time period. I should dig them out and make a baby doll quilt with them.
    Your sister is one sweet gal to have given these to you. My sis would never add to my habit. LOL!
