Textile Galore

Description For some people clothing can be just what covers them, but for some its more important, because there's always a story behind everything. The poems aren't only taking about shoes, shirts, and dresses, but about the person, and the story about that piece of fabric. Though it has it’s beautiful texture, and soft cotton touch, it also has its own background story.
