Dear Tapestry I Found at Urban Outfitters,
It is funny I am writing to you when I could just go downstairs and talk to you in person, but here we are. Sometimes love needs to be written down in a proper love letter.
You were, you are, you always will be perfection. Your colors, your pattern, your texture, your drape, your smell (how do you still smell vaguely like incense, you witchy thing?) – everything I’ve always wanted in a piece of fabric.
First you were a covering for my bed my freshman year at college. Then you were roman shades for our bedroom in the apartment where we became a family of three. Now, you are in my sewing room, awaiting your next iteration. But always, still, you are the best fabric choice I ever made. I don’t think I can adequately describe the calm I feel when you’re around. The rightness of you. You were mass produced and available at Urban Outfitters stores throughout the country in 1994? I guess so. But the fact that you and I were meant to be together and that my life is better for the fact that you are in it – I’ve never doubted it.
