He gave me a beautiful piece that he wrote a quote on in calligraphy. I was so impressed by the craftiness of that - surely we could make our own clothes!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-35361893772502481202010-09-21T05:43:37.111-04:002010-09-21T05:43:37.111-04:00Almost all my clothes are cotton- I should grow my...Almost all my clothes are cotton- I should grow my own n make clothes- but it must take alot of work...

I also agree with Talon and your niece. <br /><br />I adopted my current cat and she came with the name "socks," but it wasn't long before her love of mysteriously disappearing in my house awarded her the name Agatha, after Agatha Christie:~)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15995684156785464334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-68943532747561526882010-09-20T10:38:39.120-04:002010-09-20T10:38:39.120-04:00Clouds and cotton just belong together.

That highway is so remote that not one car passed while I was out there - it was probably five minutes.<br /><br />Jannie -<br /><br />I'd like to say that was planned, but I didn't even notice that until I uploaded the photos from my camera this morning.<br /><br />Sounds like the more the merrier in your household! :)<br /><br />xoxo<br /><br />Sage -<br /><br />I've been up and down this highway so often over the years and the last couple of years it's been cotton that is planted. I believe it might have been tobacco before, as you say.<br /><br />Ellis -<br /><br />Love that little poem.
