I have decided that I am going to have quilts made out of what I can, and will donate the rest. I thought it would be nice to make a few quilts..one for me, one for my mom, one for my sister. I haven't even begun this process and it has been 5 years. I will one day tho. maybe if there are some things that you really don't want to let go of, you can do something like this... |
That's an awesome idea (and I'm sorry about your 'granny' - you too Kanda)) - good for you and I know what you mean about 'the process' - I had no choice with his clothes ...I'd still have them probably if I wasn't moving into such a small place. I did keep a few shirts to sleep in but that's about all I kept. I seem to have enough stuff all by myself and don't have a clue as to where it's going to go. I'm used to having storage and extra rooms
Even after downsizing ....when I see all the boxes lined up against the wall I can't believe it's all mine.
Well - I take that back. Maybe not ALL mine - Why do my 2 yorkies have TWO full
boxes of hair products and mine fits into a plastic gallon size
baggie ?? Can someone tell that ???
