QUOTE: Beautifully Simple

"Beautifully designed objects
        fulfill our desire for art and poetry"
~Cindy Coleman

A  simple flour sack. 
Designed to hold the ingredient for baking a wonderful cake, coating for that chicken or used as a thickener for sauces. That simple cloth bag, designed to do a simple task.  Now take that sack, actually 2! Wash them, iron them, then sew them together! stuff them with a pillow insert and now you have a simple, beautiful throw pillow with its modern red stripe.
That red stripe makes this room fill with energy with its muted walls and millwork!
