my dad gave these to me, they were made by his mom (i dont feel right calling her my grandmom since i never met her and i dont consider my dads family my family... not even my dad)

even though i feel that way about his family i still really appreciate them, i think if she were alive id get along with her and possibly have a connection

i admire anyone with the patience to work with thread... i tried a book mark before
table cloth... and my feet lol, shows how big it is

they need to be blocked better but i didnt have time and there isent any point in doing it now, since they're packed away for now (no place for them and i dont trust moms bf to be careful with them)
