The other day there was talk about feed sacks from yester year, I remember them and had some clothes made from them myself when I was little.

Todays feed bags... I have been makine totes out of dog food bags, Chicken feed, Horse, Bird ect. See Pic.

I also do embroidery do hooded bath towels for babies and children. See Pics.

Just wanted to show some of the other things I do besides trying to learn to quilt.

Thanks for looking
Becky

Me to raised Chickens for a Hatchery here on a very large scale. When day old Chicks came to me there were usually 18 to 20 thousand at a time. Lot of work and fun to watch them grow. Egg layers, leg horns.
