2. Yesterday I went to the American Textile Museum with Angela - it was really great, I would definitely recommend it for people in the Lowell vicinity!
3. At said museum, I saw a bunch of amazing garments - they make me think of sweaters! Though I have to admit, I haven't made a sweater yet that I like...
4. There was also this, who is currently a prominent figure in my nightmares:
5. On top of the textiles, there was also some interesting Occupational Health stuff - of course, during the industrial revolution mills were pretty much the forefront of inhumane working conditions. So, that was fun to learn about!

7. I have an ulcer, so Lilac gets to eat all the tasty food that I'm not supposed to eat (Spinach, Cabbage...) I made beets for dinner, and this happened:
I know it's kind of faded, but I washed the dickens out of them and they're still purple!
You got some good photots of the garments! Was a good time :o)
