Mrs. Duck, do you quilt? Or know anyone that does? Old T-shirts (concert shirts, souvenirs etc.) make wonderful memory quilts!

JiK and I go to the Winfield music festival every year, and every year I buy at least one new T-shirt. They finally reached maximum overload in my closet and dresser, so I cut them up, saving the logo and screen prints on the backs, and along with a few other Tees I'd saved, I had enough for one large bed-size quilt and a lap quilt. Some of JiK's went back 20-odd years, since he first started going to the festival.

You can find instructions for T-shirt quilts online if you want to do one yourself. The hardest part, IMHO, is getting them all cut to the same size.

Box of books packed to take to my sister-in-law next time I go for a home town visit. Also have several "miscellaneous" things to go with the books--a jar of old marbles, a mini-lunch box, a denim shirt... it would be great if I didn't know she will send me back with another box just as full, since she's de-cluttering also. Maybe I can lock the truck while I'm there and sneak off when I leave???
