I found this yo-yo quilt in an antique shop about 15 years ago. From the looks of the fabrics I would say that the yo-yo's are made from clothing that the maker wore and possibly other members of her family too. It is expertly made and has no tears or rips that I can see. I have handwashed it twice and it is due another washing but the older it gets, I get scared to do much to it. What would you do?
The glassware sitting on the quilt was given to me by my Aunt Lurlie. I used to help her a little in the summer with her housework and she would pay me with pieces of this glass.
She got them from inside boxes of oats. I am not sure if it was Quaker Oats or not though. I had 2 more pieces but they have gotten broken over the years. Do any of you have pieces of glassware from boxes of oats?
