How fabric is made...

So complicated! Very interesting, thank you.

Cotton Mill
Growing up , both of my parents and other family members worked in a cotton mill that took raw cotton and final product wa sheets and pillow cases. I remember mom coming home smelling of cotton, with chewing gum in her apron pocket. I never appreciated the work they did till I started quilting. Mind numbing and gruelling work!

Have a pic of my BIL when he was younger and working in a mill.
