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.

Beautiful tribute Marydon. This loss is beyond my capabilities of verbal expression. The only thing that I could/can do is weep for the loss to us all..... Marilyn
Wonderful photos - I was at my son's football game last night and I thought what a blessing it is for us to live in such a great country and to enjoy our freedom!
The anniversary of an unbelievable day in the history of our beloved country--no one alive that day will ever forget. I pray for all those lost, for their survivors, and pray that nothing like that ever happens again. Carol

Hi Marydon, Thank you for leaving your comment on my blog. I enjoy meeting new friends and your site will be a fun and interesting one to follow. It’s hard to believe it has been 8 years since 9/11, it seems like yesterday. I was living on the Persian Gulf so witnessed this terrible tragedy unfold from a different vantage point. I pray the families that lost their loved ones have some peace and closure. Cathy
It was a very sad day..one I will never forget, we woke to the news and was glued to the TV all day in disbelief.. It changed our lives forever.. Julia ♥
Thanks for the visit to the Pennsylvania countryside. I used to live in southern Pennsylvania and it is nice to see it again through your pictures. Thanks for being a Follower of Porch Days. We will always remember 9/11.
Beautiful post & photos..thank you for taking the time to do this! Thank you also for leaving a comment on my blog..I see i'm going to enjoy being a follower. Sue
Touching tribute. Places for quite reflecting and remembering. I am surprised no one has posted about the Tate House before. Especially our Georgia gals.
It looks like you are seeing some beautiful countryside on your trip. I have always loved covered bridges, we don't have them here, as I'm sure you know!

~ 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.
It is a great country isn't it? I did a post about America too.
