    I am curious as to what you had to pay for these. I can' believe someone would get rid of a handmade item of their mother or grandmother.

    Yeah, I wondered about that, too. Great find! I have yet to go to a garage or estate sale and find anything like some of you people do. :(

    Well thanks guys for all the comments. I have decided to sell them because I just don't have the time to finish them anytime in the near future. I hate for things like this to just sit in a box and get in bad shape so I would rather see someone finish them. If my mother or grandmother made them there would be no way I could sell them. I would make time to finish them! You guys will choke when I tell you this and maybe I shouldn't but I gave 2.00 for them! Would you have sold your grandmothers work for 2.00!!??? I think not!

    What a great find. I would hold onto them and eventually you will figure out what to do with those girls.

    I once saw a baby quilt with them on it not near as nice as those and it was selling for over $150.00. You got a good deal! Congrats!
