I suddenly feel quite drowsy.
The pictures are beautiful but I have no idea what Eiderdown is. Could you enlighten me please?
Becky~ They're beautiful soft quilts/comforters, not so easy to come across in the U.S.
ei·der·down [ dər dòwn ] (plural ei·der·downs)
Definition:
1. eider duck's feathers: the soft fluffy breast feathers of the female eider duck, used for stuffing pillows and bed coverings
2. bed covering: a warm bed covering in the form of a quilt or duvet stuffed with feathers
Interesting history info: http://www.google.com/search?q=history+of+eiderdown+comforter&hl=en&rlz=1B3GGIC_enUS304US304&sa=G&tbs=tl:1&tbo=1&ei=ccgqSuuQIofQswOn_MmsCw&oi=timeline_result&ct=title&resnum=11
