Vintage Treasure Box

One of the added benefits of cleaning your sewing room

is finding things you have forgotten about. This box

was given to me years ago by my grandmother. 

It is filled with unfinished projects

 from her childhood.

There are various scraps of vintage fabrics...

and blocks that she pieced together as a young girl...

...most of them by hand. I remember her telling me a
story about how the women in the neighborhood would
gather together for sewing bees.
They would meet in homes and do some type of hand sewing
 in their laps.  As they worked, one particular young girl
was bragging about her sewing skills  and was really
 getting on everyone's nerves.
At the end of the event, when they all stood up to leave,
she had sewed her project to her dress!

This is my favorite block.

I love the kitten in the center block. It appears to be winking.

There are several projects that have been started

but not completed like this nine patch...

...and this dresden plate...

..and this crazy quilt.

Some fabrics are already cut into blocks...

...like these hexagons...

...and squares in various sizes.

For the moment, my intentions are to actually use the fabrics

in various small projects that I can pass on to my children

 and grandchildren. These fabrics would make such

cute little doll quilts or small wall hangings.

What suggestions do you have for these vintage fabrics?
