Economic independence


Recently I saw these items in a store that specializes in arts and crafts created by women in developing countries. By displaying and selling their work, it's a wonderful way to give economic assistance and independence to these women.  Although the bedspread is not my style,  I have to appreciate and admire the work that went into this piece.  I hope it sells quickly.

  9. I'm confident it will be somebody's style. Isn't it great that we all don't have the same tastes? Somebody will scoop it up and be thrilled to have it.

  10. It looks like there are other choices if the quilt doesn't suit you.
