Kitty, Teddy, Bunny, Squirrel Feedsack ~ What a coup! (3) fantastic finds all in one day & in perfect condition. These are supposedly around 1940s ... I AM SO EXCITED!!! The feedsacks replaced barrels for shipping farm & food items. Originally feedsacks were plain linen colored w/advertising in ink the company's logo & product. Approximately c. 1925 colored feedsacks came into play, still stamped in ink the advertising. I found it very interesting that the manuf. even created patterns for dolls, animals & quilt blocks onto the 'sacks ... I found (2) most recently.

The clip about the Geese made me cry. God has provided wisdom for us if only we will seek Him out long enough to find it and be quiet long enough to listen.
Simply beautiful post. You truly have a heart for the lost. Don't you?
Beautiful. Thanks so much for stopping by my place. I was excited to see that you are formerly from Chehalis. Did you live there long? You've got a great blog here. I've been snooping a bit - will be back to check out more. I love what Ansel said about you not having a heart! And what your husband says about Grandchildren. Boy is he ever right!!! Oh and how exciting on the feedsack finds! Oh Happy Day!!!
Marydon, Thank you so very much for your kind words regarding my latest post. It truly touched my heart. I am equally touched by not only this post, but the entire content of your blogsite. I have read and reread many of your posts and have been so blessed this evening. I, too, enjoyed the comment Ansel made regarding your heart. Aren't grandchildren just the best? Please continue with your lovely posts and photos, etc. You are such a sweet blessing.
Love your blog! Very nice layout! Thanks for following mine! I'm aiming for 100 and will have a giveaway when I reach that magic number. Love the recipe in the previous post. I make that all the time! It's always a hit and so beautiful!! Enjoy your day!
Oh Marydon, This video has just made my day!! I so enjoyed not only the beautiful pictures but the message was so inspiring and so true. I know from having so many animals on the farm that they have so many lessons to teach us humans if we only would stop, look, listen and do. Thank you so much for sharing. Hugs, Sue

~ WHY ~
I questioned 'WHY?!', He continued to listen. I turned a deaf ear, He spoke softly. I struggled & floundered, He continued to hold me up. I closed my eyes, He touched my heart. I looked for answers, He was patient. I begged for strength to endure, He gave me love. (Written by Marydon Ford)
I am an antique boutique owner. We feature vintage feedsack fabrics, over 3,000 are in inventory ... these are authentic, the kind G'ma used to create quilts, towels, tablecloths, etc. We also have beautiful boutique designer quality baby quilt gift sets ... vintage teacup lighting creations.
I have been married to my beloved hubby FOREVER, we have survived many bumps & bruises along the way. God has carried us thru the heavy loads of life.
We have (4) children, angel Sean will remain 3 & 1/2 yrs. forever. I loved being a Mother, I simply adore being a Mimi to (2) & Mini to (1), our adorable ones. Hubby says they are the rewards for not killing our kids. Chuckle.
We love to travel. Holland is our favorite country ... we have enjoyed our many visits there ... it beckons still.
We are imperfect, have strayed from the path of God, but restored our footings ... we bow before Him humbly.
Dear MD....
