ode to linen, short version

i've just read the Valentine to Linen,
at the Maxon-Dixon blog.
Click here for the link.

i too have
big feelings for Linen and
Linen things.
this year i hope to accomplish
some things using linen ....

i've just received
some of Rowan's Linen blend,
"lenpur" ...
I haven't swatched it just yet.
It's a lot softer than i was expecting.
It certainly won't become a kitchen curtain,
but no doubt it will
start to take shape in the spring.
