Ruby's Long Story: "The Time Went Farster Than Enythinck".

Ruby wrote this in maybe grade 4? I stitched it in 2004 or so but haven't shown you yet. My first intention was to make a quilt type thing, built of all these kiddie's things... but now I'm not so sure. It spends some of its time hanging on the wall as is.
