Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower.

 Hi there... In my last post i used Plaid table cloth for an Fall table setting. There was a interesting question in  comment box that 'Is there any season that you cannot use Plaid?  That made me little curious and made me to think why plaid materials are used widely in Fall/Winter more, than in other two seasons. Did a little bit of  study about plaid/tartan and its use and sharing few points here what i understood.   They are mostly used during later part of the year for various reasons.  It is a versatile material for Fall/Winter. The fabric is a combination of wool and cotton. Plaid is a pattern of strips or bands of bold colour that intersect to form squares. For centuries its been popular and are associated with various culture and fashion traditions. In Summer plaid patterns are used in cotton materials which are breathable and easy to wear.
