    Oh wow, I love all the pansies. I made a doily like that about 25 yrs ago. I used the variegated purple and yellow. Very nice pictures.That bunny is so adorable. Susan, The building is a water closet for the cows. On the other side the top half is open and the cows put their head in it and can get a drink of water from a laundry wash sink. It has an automatic fill float works like a toilet tank, shuts off when the water reaches a certain level. The side you see is where we open it and turn on heaters or heat lamp in the winter.Anyone know what May's theme is?

    Mary -- beautiful photos! I love lilacs but, unfortunately, out lilac tree came down. (sniff) So no more lilacs. I adore the photo of the tree with that little water barn. The only thing missing are the cows! I adore cows & have for the past 30+ years. I have photos of cows laying on the beach at Achill Island, Rep of Ireland, from when we lived in Ireland. Maybe you can take some photos of your cows?

    Pat -- what a beautiful swap package you put together for your partner! Totally awesome! Love those pansies. And the bunny! I had a picture in my head of a flat wool bunny laying on top of a pc, & I thought that was a cool idea! Hah! And the doily is beautiful, too; I can't crochet that fine! You're handwork is amazing!

    Pat everything you made is just gorgeous. I also have two pansy crocheted doilies like that with purple and yellow flowers that my mom made me before she died. I cherish them so much, so when I seen them I suddenly got a big smile on my face. When I seen my dad the other day and we took him out to eat, we seen some of those pansies and I told him I always called them the flowers with little faces. lol... Dad said, "those are cold weather flowers." All of the items you made are very pretty. Other items pretty too.

    Um, I always peek at those other things on your table under the glass things.

    Thanks Mary that sounds so cool. Very convenient way to do it too with the floater.
