Gina Wilson is rescuing family heirlooms from garage sales and opportunity shops. The wealth of history in the embroidered tablecloths, doilies, aprons and tea-cosies is on display at Bundoora Homestead Arts Centre until September 16.
“These are handmade by someone’s great-grandmother, grandmother or great aunt,” she says. “For generations linen was among a family’s most precious possessions.”
The homestead is at 27 Snake Gully Drive, Bundoora.
