[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 732130, member: 4040"] I am not "crafty." I can't knit, sew, make cute stuff, paint pictures, and I even struggle with hanging up other people's pictures. I admire those lost arts, but I would rather read. My Nana's father used to move the cookstove out to the washroom every summer because it was too hot to cook in the house. They used to boil the laundry in a huge copper pot out back. The outhouse was out by the barn. The sisters all needlepointed, made lace, made their own clothing (of course), knitted and crochets, embroidered dish towels, made quilts, canned food, made jams and jellies...and had an entire set of that Franciscan Apple pattern for dishes/linens. Nana was the youngest of six sisters. [/QUOTE]
