Introduction

This project is for English 4302 subject. Our

group chose topic Colour from Nature
because it can use in daily life and most of
members in our group live in the district which
is famous for waving silk and cotton. We hope
that knowledge which we found would be useful
for people in our community and other
communities. And it could be the foundational
knowledge to research more information.
It this project had some objection, our group
would beg pardon everyone
