The Mid-Autumn Moon Festival is one of the most celebrated festivals
in Chinese culture. It takes place every year on the day of

Asia, millions of Chinese gather to feast, dance, light colorful paper

$150. a yard?!?
Wow, It must be elegant stuff. I'm currently doing a marble tile floor
that costs $8 a tile and I'm kind of nervous with the cutting. You
must be sweating bullets with each scissor stroke. But then, you really
know your stuff. You'll make that fabric look like $300./yard.
