On my smart phone, I don't get as much detail on the posters, such as that little feedback option.

you may also recognise jacquard, brocade and bombazine. the dark yellow strip in the first picture is a piece of grosgrain that i mentioned previously. enjoy the visual feast! it's sooo much more sumptuous in person!
