OLD WIPES.

When I were a little girl I collected wipes.
Every time my parens, sister and I went to a restautant, I always took a new one. Later on I gathered with other girlfriends and then we exchanged wipes. This I have also done with stickers and scraps.
Today I still have my old wipes and scraps.

Here the other day I went down into the basement to my storageroom and there I found a shoebox which contains all my old wipes.
What a thrill it was to re-open again, taking up each piece and go back in memory.

All my wipes in a 30 cm big layer.

Most of the wipes is with flower patterns and in pastel colors. Some is broken a little bit, others have small stains of spots on them.
To me it does not matter, as it's the memories which is most important.
Some of the wipes I have, is also from my sister and a few from when my mother where a teenager.

This pattern is completly different from the others, more modern.

Still I love the flower patterns more. It reminds me of Spring and Summer.

To the right a Holly which is popular when it's Christmas.

This looks like a cross stitch embroidery.

Yesterday when I made some textile letters, I added one of my old wipes to each envelop. I hope the receivers will enjoy them as much as I have done.
