I wonder if we have those here in the northwest? I just dug out some fabric I put in a pot of soil with my zinnia's. In a week and a half it already started decomposing. very interesting. hope all is well.kellienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7792487461919879599.post-46179207149671841882010-08-13T13:59:57.658-07:002010-08-13T13:59:57.658-07:00Love the grey-mottled fabric...Love the grey-mottled fabric...gerfileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00261124126907317343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7792487461919879599.post-8517747696668603082010-08-13T05:24:22.132-07:002010-08-13T05:24:22.132-07:00Penny B....soon enough. but isn't
