We were suppose to work on sorting and clearing more of the papers and fabric I have in my house from our parents.<\/p>\n<p>She brought up a carload (minivan) of fabric (hmm, great idea?)- fabric that my mom had insisted she take because they were &#8220;her colors&#8221;, even though she knew she would never use them.  My sister had always planned on getting them to me, but I had forgotten all about them.<br \/>\nShe stopped to visit her daughter who is an Interior Architect.  Laurel threw a few bolts of designer fabric into the car.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"45circlefabric.jpg\" id=\"image1565\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/45circlefabric.jpg\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"45laurel.jpg\" id=\"image1572\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/45laurel.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next, Tina spent some time with my brother and sister-in-law.  Diane looked at the car and decided she had some fabric that my mom had given her over the years that she was never going to use- another load into the car.  I am surprised the car made it up to Boston!<\/p>\n<p>After sorting through the fabric I had already decided to get rid of and everything Tina had brought, here is a photo of the back of the car before we drove down to the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.schooloffashiondesign.org\/\">School of Fashion Design of Boston<\/a> to make our donation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"45car.jpg\" id=\"image1564\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/45car.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I am not sure that I ended up with less fabric.
