ok, nance. next question. but first, this is the only photograph any one had of my maternal grandmother, Katrin Marie Ludvinka. In her mother country, Moravia, she was a trained midwife. She also was the record keeper, as in birth/deaths property ownership etc in her village there. i can speak the name of that village but don't know how to spell it. the spelling looks nothing like the spoken. anyway, upon immigrating to America via Canada, she was no longer able to practice midwifery, did not speak english. and so, she worked first in the sugar beet fields of Nebraska, and then the potatoe fields in Owosso, Michigan and supplemented her income by occasionally assisting at a birth, taking in ironing and selling eggs. i never knew her. she died just months before i was born. But the story of her that my mother told upon my request was that some unforseen expense would arise and every time, like Every Time, Katrin would somehow miraculously sell just enough eggs, iron just enough shirts or sheets and the expense would be met "to the penny".
so. the next question is: is this minimal cloth and any other's like it that may come along, is this cloth worth $48.00, or, the cost of 6 bales of alfalfa? which is what i need, weekly, for the Goats. if now and then, a cloth would sell, it would be good.
you look at a lot of fabric art. what do you think? AND, does this, factored in change your mind about leaving it exactly as it is now?
