Welcome, Polly. Great nickname. Looking forward to hearing about your
stitching adventures, and anything else.

Ahah, the lady that produced the fabric for many of my trousers still
hanging in my closet from the 60s arises!!
Seeing as how I have been chief cook and dish rinser (Casey washes what he
doesn't chew) around here the last couple of days maybe I will wear the
yellow bell bottoms tomorrow, for 30 seconds anyway. LOL!
Your dwelling place reminds me of a time when my DW and I were at the Sprint
Car national races in Eastbay. A rookie driver went too fast around a turn,
over the high embankment and out of sight, then a big cloud of steam went up
into the air. The announcer said that if the driver was ok we should see him
running back to the race track pretty soon because he had landed in a gator
pond. Shore nuff in a few minutes the driver came running back over the
embankment about as fast as he drove over it. I'm not sure if the gator pond
is still there or not.
Welcome aboard Polly Ester!!!

Whoops I think I have to make a correction here. IIRC it was Ms. Polly and
Ms. Ester that produced the fabric.
Any relation??
