So I took them out of their bag and I found two plates mostly complete. I also found a pile of pieces that need to be sewn together.
I don't have any idea of their age. But I will find out someday. They are stiff and dirty, but there is no way I can wash them till I appliqué them down.
So once again I have a take along project! I love these little things that can be pulled out in the doctors office or during boring meetings. After I finish the basket handles, I've just been twiddling my thumbs. Last night I had one of the afore mentioned meeting and it helped to keep me for being too bored. And just think, someday I'll have an heirloom, all from forgotten pieces.

Very cool! I think you have some original feedsacks there. :-)
And I love how your challenge is coming along!
Have a happy weekend!
very fun. :) I need a new take-along. My tote is empty now that I finished the UFO that was in there. Hesitant to start anything new, though, when I'm doing so well at shooting down the massive UFO list. On the other hand. . . I have nothing toteable right now, and it drives me nuts! lol
What a fun project to take along. Yes, I totally know what you mean by having those just when you need them. It'll be an heirloom for sure!
I love working with old quilt pieces. If they are too stinky I would wash them first- well soak in Oxyclean in the sink then lay on a towel to dry. That works pretty good without them coming unraveled.
What a nice portable project. It's nice to have something ready to grab on the way out the door already prepped. I look forward to seeing them on their background.
