they seemed to be breathing...


my thoughts are turning to autumn. the nights are getting cool so i have to rethink the bedding. a few years ago i was making children's clothes using vintage chenille bedspreads. i bought alot on ebay and friends would tell friends and i became known as the woman in newfoundland who collects chenille. i would receive bedspreads in the mail from people i didn't know. most of the spreads that arrived were torn and worn but occasionally they were in such good shape that i couldn't cut them up. these are a couple of my favourites. they're wearing out now. they've been sewn and patched. but there's life in them yet. on the line yesterday they seemed to be breathing...
