As nostalgia grows for things of yesteryear, we look for ways to combine the practical with the vintage. These stylish and useful home accessories have become hot new decorating items for home sewing. Homemakers from the past were not only resourceful, they were stylish in their approach to creating functional items on a limited budget. The Homekeeping quilt depicts the daily schedule of managing home chores...an idea whose time may have returned for those of us dizzy with all that needs to be done every day. I have found myself more and more drawn to this very practical routine for keeping my home running smoothly. What fun it would be to use this as the inspiration for a block-of-the-month gathering of friends! -Approximate finished sizes • Homekeeping Quilt: 27" W x 35" H • Laundry Bag: 14 1/2" W x 23" H • Laundry Caddy: 7" W x 27" H • Sewing Machine Dust Cover: adjustable • Shoe Keeper: 10 1/2" W x 14 1/2" H • Whisk Broom Cover: 14" W x 14" H
