I am listening to “Ayala’s Angel”, by Anthony Trollope. Thoroughly entertaining, but I don’t think I’ll put Ayala on the list of good names.

“What Clothes Reveal, The Language of Clothing in Colonial and Federal America” by Linda Baumgarten. I got it from the library, but this book looks like such a good book, I might need to own it. The detail photos of embroidery are excellent.
