As a northern gal I've not been lucky enough to see a cotton field in full bloom like that.

I really loved the cotton-y news! It's neat to see the star in the center of the open cotton boll. Many fruits also have a star in the center or the top. Do they point to their Creator, the star of Bethlehem?Grandma Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14584413857364540867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7405871417372731856.post-91117532806975649422008-10-10T17:46:00.000-05:002008-10-10T17:46:00.000-05:00What a cotton pickin' good time.

(Well, probably have -- I've traveled a lot -- but I'm pretty sure I would have remembered a 'ripe' cotton field.)<BR/><BR/>The still-life looks nice. The closed cotton boll (the purple-ish one) is pretty too.shaunjoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12636638257375872699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7405871417372731856.post-6905519663114312402008-10-08T09:31:00.000-05:002008-10-08T09:31:00.000-05:00I don't use the cotton for anything other than dec...I don't use the cotton for anything other than decorating. It is too dirty and too full of seeds to do anything else. <BR/><BR/>Unless Carrie comes to visit. We would then replace the Quilted Northern with some cotton bolls full of pepper trash.<BR/><BR/>Heather, I would be totally ignorant of the whole cotton growing process if it weren't for my fine and knowledgeable husband. I had him proof my post before I published it, just to make sure I had gotten everything straight!Cottonistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478364866100935339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7405871417372731856.post-83914176179480476892008-10-07T21:08:00.000-05:002008-10-07T21:08:00.000-05:00Oh Joyce what an education you just gave me.

Then I wouldn't have to buy cotton balls, or wipes, or Q-tips, or toilet paper...
