Family Photo

Mom found this photo of my Great Aunt Erma.  What's so special about it is this was taken her second year os sewing class at Paul Quinn College, Waco, Texas.  I knew that my grandma & my Auntie were quilters and seamstresses but I hadn't realized that a few other members of the family were as well.  I was so excited to see this old photo and to gather little tidbits of my family history.

    I love old photos and regret that my family didn't keep them and pass them down. :( You are lucky to have things like this!

    What a great photo - I bet they all made their clothing! I wonder why nobody smiled back then - most pictures from that era show very somber faces!
