Show Me Wednesdays - Suitcases


I started buying old suitcases a few years ago as I needed storage room.
The train case holds sewing supplies;
The green case holds wool felt
The bottom case holds fabric.

The overnight suitcase holds cutter quilt pieces (from damaged quilts).

Middle suitcase holds more Fabric.

The bottom case holds my wedding dress and an old quilt.

Hi Judy!
Thanks for visiting! I'm new to blogging myself..just started a month ago. I love your blog...I have a large collection of postcards..mostly from my husbands grandmother..she save everything. It's nice to meet someone who appreciates vintage postcards.
Do you live near Sacramento? (You can email me with more details if you'd like) I'd love to get to know you!
Blessings!

Love this. I'd love to find an old suitcase to house dress up clothes for the kid's someday. Such a lovely way to store treasures.
