I know that this post has nothing to do w/ the kids, but I wanted to share my found treasure. I love fabrics and therefore was excited with my discovery. SO I have seen this can in my attic for a while now and I finally brought it down and dug through it. It was left there by a previous tenant and since this house is over 100 yrs old, it could have been anyone. Please ignore dirty laundry in background :)
Here are some of the fun fabrics I found.
There were a lot of knits so I'm assuming it from the 70's. There were also a couple of started clothing items, but I will enjoy playing w/ these scraps.
#'s 5 and 6 are my faves. cool find, mel...although i wouldn't have the slightest idea what to do with it! I can't wait to see what you come up with, very creative friend! :)

I love the red one on the bottom. How cool is that. Maybe I should go clean my storage areas and see what fun things I find.....or maybe not.
very cool find! so what will you do with them? make a quilt of eclectic fabrics?
