Just sayin' how hard it is to cut up 50 year old vintage hippos from my grandmother's collection(:
Been loving it so long. As you know, there is no trailer hitch on the hearse...and I am getting older...so.....
Plus, Mr. O'Quilts says that if I die first, he is calling the Goodwill and they will NOT remember that it was Grandma's apron fabric from forever ago(:
Neither will the child who gets this at the hospital. But, it will send good vibes and lots of love to someone who may need it. I think that my friend MT would approve...
PS... What is this with advertising noise every time I check a post or blog????

What fun fabric, and you are right, it will make a child smile and that is what it is all about.
Letting go of the past is hard because of the memories we attach to so many things! I am this kind of sentimental, too. As someone who has had near death experiences, you'd think I'd understand even more than I do by now...but I still brought some of my mother's blouses back to Oregon with me..and not to use for fabric. Big hug to you, Diane.
That is such cute fabric and it will be loved in that fun quilt. It can be so hard to cut into those special fabrics. Mr O's remark made me laugh. What is the advertising noise? ,do you mean the advertising people have on their blogs?
Wait a minute! No trailer?!? Do you mean I *can't* take it with me!?!
Love grandma's hippos & elephants, but you are right, some child will LOVE her fabric & not know or care that it was anyone's apron.
Make yourself a little something that uses a scrap of it
