Just finished! I found this fabric at a local antique shop and had to have it. We host the Columbus Carriage Classic, a pleasure driving competition, here in Columbus WI every summer- this year Aug. 22-24. I made this for a dear friend for her birthday. The fabric is a Waverly- called "They're Off". Don't know what year it was made. I got a good sized chunk of it and will make some more totes and maybe pillow, too!

Setting up the camera, etc
Some of the excitement here at the Gallery...we are the scene of the Green Castle bank robbery. They spent all day, Tuesday March 18th, filming this scene...the gang coming out of the bank after robbing it. Can you spot Johnny on the car? We did get to meet him very briefly- he is very gracious. They finished up the filming here last night-or should I say early this morning (3am) We will miss them!

Our Bea

This is our Bea-short for Beatrix-she was an English Shepard- the good old farm dog. She passed on March 14th from kidney failure. She was the BEST dog ever-never ran away, never barked except in a thunderstorm)loved everyone, stayed in our yard with no fence! We miss her but know she is at peace now. This was taken on one of her best last days- she loved to be outside and would only come in at night. She was 14 years old.
