[...] I ordered 2 pounds of organic cotton scraps from Natural America ($4 per pound; shipping and handling cost $9), just to see what I would get—you may marvel at my journalistic dedication—and also to try my hand at making some of these lovely Japanese patchwork bags. And if your spouse or partner protests at the deluge that has overtaken the living room, you can grit your teeth in self-righteous indignation and inform said person that you’re saving fabric waste from the landfill, and bark “DON’T YOU CARE ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING?!” [...]
