    We bought this old building from the Bible camp our kids went to in the summers. They buildt new cabins and needed to get rid of the old ones so here is one of them... The only problem is its hot in the summer and cold in the winter. South Dakota hot equals about +130' and cold in the winter equals about -40', so mostly it is for storage. Plus no electricity so I have to run a drop cord to it if I want to use it in the night and have on a light (which brings out the bugs) or plug in a radio or sewing machine or what have you... thought you'd like to see a quilt in another location other than on a wall or bed.. I am going to do my mail box this summer wait to see that...

    Wow, I love the Beautiful quilt on your line (the large one) do you have a close-up photo of it?

    The other quilts are Beautiful too, but I was drawn to your larger quilt.

    Novel approach. The quilts look like are at home

    can we see a closer view of the Our Lady of Guadalupe quilt?

    Yea, that is Katie Jo, She is my "Cheapest hired hand", here on the ranch. Boarder collie, that moves cattle to pastures and helps me gather them to move to other pastures. She lets me know when there is a skunk in the area too! I love her!

    It's delightful...love the whole thing...that is a brilliant photo. Would make a great card or biscuit tin pic. What could be more perfect, a "quilted" quilter's cabin, a line full of quilts and a part-time inspector (when she's not herding). Thanks...you brightened up my afternoon!
