any years ago, I attended an antique show at the famous Round Stone Barn in Hancock Shaker Village in Massachusetts.  There, I happened upon an original Shaker sewing desk.  Each community built its own version of the sewing desk.  Although I cannot remember from which community this antique came, I do remember being in great awe of it.
 
The desk was used by two Shaker "sisters" as they sewed.  One sister would use the side bank of drawers, while the other used the drawers in front; the two sisters would share the upper bank.
 
Our version of this striking desk is based upon an 1840's piece created in the Shaker community of Canterbury, New Hampshire, and it already has made an appearance at the Round Stone Barn.

I've read about link exchanges a lot recently. I've seen a lot of people who say that their predictions that link exchange would stop working saying that they were right, and that they don't work, and that they in fact hurt your website. Let's stop right there. Proclaiming the death of link exchanges is still a little premature.
