Patchwork Suit


This is delightful. Thanks for Accidental Mysteries for pointing out Joshua Lowenfels' wonderful collections.

I wonder how happy a person would feel wearing an outfit like this?

History of Laundry Songs

The original idea for this site was that it could be a place where dirty laundry was wrung clean and hung out in the sun. Really. No metaphors, no similies, no inuendo. Just clean clothes. Lots of them. Then, it seemed silly. So, now it is a place where I collect images, songs, poems, books, essays, and people celebrating domestic life. Lots of them.
