Nostalgia!

I love crazy quilting and patchwork and may have to keep this ATC as it evokes nostalgia - something that comes over me in waves in my dotage!
Remember the small print cottons and voiles used to make little girl's frocks (that little girl is now in her 40s!)-remember the little shop in Bruges that sold such lovely lace - remember those Spanish markets with cheap bead bracelets - remember a lazy daisy stitch sampler made with a group of children in a craft club - oh! - remember a wedding dress 50+ years ago with seed 'pearls' head dress (and made with gorgeous lace from the Rag Market). Precious memories.
