			<description><![CDATA[I am 80 years old, and "re-purposing" was a necessity in my youth. My Mother, a single mother, purchased an old wool coat, in good condition, and took it apart to cut a new coat for me out of the fabric. She was an amazing seamstress, and the finished garment was beautiful.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The dress is unbeliveably beautiful. My thought is what is it being recycled into. Will it lessen the treasure that it already is]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I totally agree with Joy's comments. Our family has the philosophy of conservation in all things where it is valid. We are a large, far-flung family and when we get together, we all bring out=grown things and other sundries to swap. Only lately has there been a plentitude of goods, and especially, food. Are we fat because of TV and video games or because of over-indulgence of ourselves? Saving everything you can, not using more than you need and sharing what you aren't currently using has become a clandestine, hidden thing in our society, almost as if it was somehow "dirty". We need to get over ourselves and look at the broader, even global, picture. This dress is just a reminder that our ancestors did this out of necessity. We should do it out of respect for the earth.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Of course, repurposing items has been around for a while. It's only in the last century or so that the ordinary person in North America and other "advanced societies" has had more than he or she needs. Most of us repurpose now because of a philosophy, not of need. As well, over a hundred years, a family's circumstance can change significantly. In a time when many people made their own clothing, it was a given that you would use what you had. This fabric has performed very well over the years.]]></description>
