		<description><![CDATA[All I needed to see were the words &#8220;American&#8221; &#38; &#8220;Vintage&#8221; in the same sentence and my attention was drawn. Never mind that I was not just the only man in the room, but the only non-retirement aged person in the room as well. Yeah, well, vintage textiles and a mutual admiration for masterful craftsmanship [...]]]></description>

I had seen their posters in shop windows and restaurants and even wine labels they had created, but never knew who was behind the beautiful letterpress print work. It turns out that Hatch Show Print is actually one of the country&#8217;s oldest and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Family holidays, like Mother&#8217;s Day and Father&#8217;s Day, are much more to me than a time to thank our parents for raising us and making us who we have become. They are great opportunities to take a long look at the personalities and lives of the people that make up our heritage. The women in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With my college years starting down south in North Carolina (Greensboro, to be exact), I remember driving through Princeton, N.C. on my way to the Outerbanks. Not a bad drive, knowing that the beaches lay just ahead. Although, I wasn&#8217;t buying any flour at the time, I imagine I most likely stopped in some stores [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yep, for college students back in the 1920&#8242;s, this was their laundromat. Without laundry services on campus or accessibility to a neighborhood laundromat (not sure if they even existed yet), college students had to rely on their ever-dependable mom to keep them in clean duds. As often as needed, they&#8217;d pack all their dirty (alcohol [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the encouragement of friends and family (and a whole lot of work), General Knot &#38; Co. has officially become a reality today. It&#8217;s been many months of inspired work- more fun than work actually. Years of vintage shopping at flea markets, estate sales, and hole-in-the-wall shops, helped drive the concept and partnering up with [...]]]></description>

With that said, it really is a wonder how Madison Avenue survived its heyday by putting out the cheese as demonstrated by the accompanying commercials.

I say &#8220;person&#8217;s&#8221;, but in those days you would have been hard pressed to find a man who knew his way around a home sewing machine. Women were the center of the home&#8217;s universe, [...]]]></description>
