I bought a cushion for my fireside chair with a mouse from Beatrix Potter's Tailor of Gloucester and it's the best financial investment I've made in a while, I smile every time I see it
#i found this book i don't remember where when i was 10ish and tried to read it. very audacious seeing as i knew like 50 words of english#i skimmed through it looking for words i recognised. mouse. snow. coat etc#then i encountered the phrase ''worsted chenille'' and it was the last straw#i knew what worst means. it means very bad. it's in past tense for some reason. and chenille is a caterpillar. in french for some reason#and this doesn't make the sentence any more intelligible! i thought it was about clothes? wasn't this guy making a coat#what role does the worst caterpillar play in this project#it was demoralising i felt like english & i would never work. you can know the words and they still don't make sense#the words worsted chenille have haunted me ever since
