A field of Belties...

It has been a rainy weekend so photo ops have been in short supply. But just before the rain, it was quite humid and there was some hazy sun around. If you read this blog, you know I am obsessed with Belted Galloway cows. They are like the pandas of New England--they stand out against the landscape and are just beautiful to look at. What would you expect form a penguin collector? (Yes, I have to admit that I have hundreds of them. ) Animals with graphic marking really call to me.

Our long weekend is not over. We are leaving in a few minutes, so...

enjoy the day!

Smile (:>)........beautiful pictures......I'm obsessed with license plates, vintage embroidery, little chairs, dolls, dolls and more dolls, vintage dishes, vintage glassware...and on and on. Love the pictures. Pandas of New England--I love it....I need to think about what the pandas of Mississippi are....

What wonderful photos. Your scenery looks much the way that ours did on Saturday when Mr. Staggs and I were out for a drive. Only, I don't know what sorts of cows we were seeing. We saw wild cherries blooming everywhere. They were so pretty mixed in with the evergreens and the new growth on the other trees.

I'm sorry to have taken so long to give you the name of the batting. It is Poly-fil brand Cotton Classic Batting. I don't keep it in the plastic once I bring it home, so I had to look for it at the store again. There is only one fabric store in our area that carries it, but I think you can find it online. I'll send a little sample, if you'd like me to, along with the ATC's. I'm still trying to come up with something that pleases me. I think, I have....finally! Working that small, I've decided it's best to keep things simple. Isn't that the way, with most things! I keep reminding myself.
