Green dresses are a personal favorite; this one is up there in my all-time list.

I first ran across it when I was doing research into the history of velvet for one of my ThreadTalk subjects and I could not look away. It looks like it's made of moss, and if I wear it, I may find my way to Faerie.

The date on the gown is somewhere between 1885-1888, & it was made in Scotland by Gowan and Strachan, and is from the National Museums Scotland collection.

You know, I am grateful for you. For everyone out there who is curious, compassionate, kind, and fosters laughter, understanding, and connection.

The last few days have showed me that no one place can ever hold the keys to our communities, our passions, our power, and our fire.

No matter what, we've got this.
