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 FROST took care of the gardens ... it is soooo sad to see our 'beauties' giving way to rest, as the seeds now mix with Mother Earth, nestled beneath the blanket of fallen leaves, awaiting the snows to nourish them for rebirth in the warmth of spring.

Good Morning PB! I had such a lovely drive with you this morning. Thanks for the tour of the city. I believe I love the last one most of all. Sun setting? Sun rising? It is just beautiful, you captured God with his paintbrush. Just breath taking. Thanks for sharing.
Have a wonderful blessed day. I so love you and many hugs, Cherry Jelly
Marydon, I love the pictures, and wow frost already your so lucky well your lucky in my eyes, we don't see frost or any resemblance to snow here in Phoenix, I love going outside during the winter seeing the breathe in the air, and then wearing over-sized jackets, and scarfs and mittens I love dressing up for the holidays :0)
You did amazingly with showing the frost on the flowers and leaves! I'm so *jealous*! I couldn't seem to photograph it this year, as I have in the past.
And though it's sad to see flowers killed by frost, they do make lovely photography subjects.
Always the BEST scenic pictures! I LOVE that beautiful sunset ~ my most favorite time of day. Wow, you hit the feedsack mother load.... again! You go girl! Hugs, Gail
Pretty photo's. I Enjoy your countryside. I also wanted to let you know that I have given you an "award"...hope you don't mind being tagged...come on over and check it out! *hugs*deb

~ 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.
great photos....
