"No one makes their own clothes or quilts anymore. Most clothing, bedding, quilts, well... most of anything is now massed produced. There is no real heart in it, anymore." He hated to be the one to tell Ilya that. "I try and make my own when I can. And aye, you can have a say in the fabrics we used. Maybe we can go off campus one day to the fabric store! I can show you around, as there are now so many varieties."

He smiled at the thought, realizing that Ilya had never been shopping before.

"It will be fun! The fabric store has such wonderful people running it!"
