Love this thoroughly claret-colored post with all it’s roll-over addendums! I think Robert Lewis Stevenson was a closet-sewist! —> “I took off my coat, and set to mending it, soldier-fashion, with a needle and thread. There is nothing more conducive to thought, above all in arduous circumstances; and as I sewed I gradually gained a clearness upon my affairs. I must be done with the claret-colored chaise at once. It should be sold at the next stage for what it will bring. Rowley and I must take back to the road on our four feet . . . . “
