One thing I love about these stories is the way the dangers of debt snd benefits of debt-free livung are highlighted.

The early 1980's is when the Savings and Loan Bank crisis happened. I remember because I was pregnant and jobs were scarce. My husband became unemployed. We had trouble feeding ourselves.

What about the acreage? Truly smart woman would put part in fruit,part in pecans and come up with other uses. Plus you keep making these women spinsters,we are not! We also have kids even if their father turned out devoid of integrity, respect and work ethic. Women who have 18 hour days, learning something new every day while keeping old industries alive are intensely multi dimensional and these stories miss that

Such poor spirited critics… afraid she will find a new use for mill waste… and trying to discourage Lorene before she started😳 but… she had heritage and legacy ❤❤❤

She's selling to 4 different outlets, just one of them is ordering 6 quilts a month isn't that 72 quilts for that one outlet?<br>Yet they say she's making 52 quilts a year.....<br><br>AI math is peculiar.<br><br>As a quilter, it takes our quilt group months per quilt just to do the quilting. <br>Not running a farm, not carding the cotton fiber, not piecing the quilting tops.....<br>I'm not seeing how anyone can build an entire quilt every week from the ground up while also running a household and a farm.
