Hi Dinie,

I haven't seen the Parsons book, and my first glimpse of this style of PR was Joy's post here. I find it very interesting that a sort of paradigm rug would spring up lately in Afghanistan, and one person would acquire one with high quality wool pile, while another would get the other end of the spectrum. Was your rug a close match to Joy's, design-wise? Were they being produced from cartoons?

Condolences to you, BTW.

Rich
