Hi Cynthia,
Thanks for stopping by my blog.

This is a wonderful piece.
I like - "words softly sowed in dusk-cloaked fields." Growing up a farmers daughter that has a lot of meaning to me.

Cynthia said...

Hi Crochet Lady. I enjoy hearing
about your journey into the
crochet & jewelry "traveling boutique". I am learning as you
tell your readers the experiences
you encounter.

Yes! I know, the constrast. Eileen's book is full of imaginative pairings and
brush-stroking of words.
