    Swatch Book - late 1800s

    Nicole Jenkins posted this Japanese indigo dye swatch book on Facebook and I thought it was lovely. I started to describe how these "rice resist" patterns are made, but I really don't know for sure ... if someone else wants to jump in. Nor do I know the source of this image.

    People keep stealing

    This makes me think - Our grocery store used to put all the checks that had bounced under glass when you were paying up. Cruel and humiliating ... and of course hard not to check it out.

    People keep stealing

    Oh ... this is disheartening to read. Jen - I don't see a shop lifter reading your sign unfortunately. Perhaps something shorter? I have seen shoplifting in thrift stores and when we had a farm stand we had problems. Sad.
