Stamps (postal)

Now the Gee's Bend quilts are on US stamps. As the blogger on whipup.net commented, "This is poetic justice to me - women of color in one of the most economically depressed areas of our country get their craft on postage stamps. Best news I’ve heard all day."

I've been hoarding some geographical, historical - even cosmic - UK stamps. Too good to use!
That gridded quilt thing, cumulation, happens in sheets of stamps -- more is so much more.
