Enjoying them around the holidays every year. I knew that they were passed down through the family but I guess I just never realized just how old they really are, now I appreciate them even more. I'm happy to hear that you are finally restoring them. I look forward to someday using them on my table for special occasions along with theSara S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15106369423735994199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4430574198775498108.post-2899406337117809212013-10-28T22:16:21.234-05:002013-10-28T22:16:21.234-05:00Beautiful workmanship!

Yes, I am sure that is one 'Passed and Gone' talent when referring to young folk.<br /><br />Most 20 year olds would not have a teacher, nor anyone the the time to pass on such a talent.<br /><br />What a treasure to pass down. Amazing even that one is in such good shape after 100+years. <br /><br /jack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4430574198775498108.post-68803314836713356302013-10-28T18:00:59.798-05:002013-10-28T18:00:59.798-05:00Oh the work put into those table cloths.

I was going to always use it as a bedspread, with a bright colored piece of satin under it. But we always had dogs, and I never made it into a bedspread. When we moved and downsized, my daughter inherited mine!!!<br />Muffy's Markshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13826630430126318583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4430574198775498108.post-23494430982732468662013-10-28T17:02:23.050-05:002013-10-28T17:02:23.050-05:00I love these ,well worth fixing .
