Posted - Jan 31 2015 : 07:42:31 AM Of course. :) I don't remember, I've collected antique quilts and sewing machines for many years. Now I wonder what for? I guess for my enjoyment. Old things intrigue me. I'm pulled toward things I have to figure out or wonder how they worked. I think that's the excitement. The craftsmanship is outstanding. I find the older machines beautiful and some quite artistic. The hand quilting on some of my quilts, I just can't get over it. I know today's machines do a quick and nice job and I'v had several of mine machine quilted, but I like hand quitling better. Like the looks of it and I think of the women who were so incredibly busy years ago, and the work that went into those quilts. I've hand quilted four or five now and it takes time. I'm rattling. sorry. |

Posted - Jan 31 2015 : 07:32:18 AM Speaking of collections, your sewing machine collection is priceless Janet. How many years did it take you to find all those? But of course, the separated-at-birth thing, I have a collection of adult treadle heads on shelves above a room ... |

Posted - Jan 31 2015 : 04:55:54 AM Ron, milk cows aren't collections, they're family! So I can have as many as I like and it still wouldn't be a collection. How many is too many? :) |

Let us know what Lucas says, MaryJane. Those are darling. |

Posted - Jan 30 2015 : 3:35:54 PM I don't have much wall art. A couple paintings. I have a old Dehorner my dad gave me. I don't think I could lift it and use it at the same time it's so heavy. And some sort of contraption that goes on a cow to keep the calf from sucking. I suppose I should hang them up in the basement. |

Posted - Jan 30 2015 : 3:15:31 PM I've got a few antique print wall hangings of cows I will have to dig out and dust off. Left over from Elaines antique store back in the day. |

Posted - Jan 30 2015 : 2:15:29 PM I will ask Lucas. The people that he and Meg buy such things from for our store rotate and discontinue items fairly routinely. But I will check! |

Posted - Jan 30 2015 : 2:06:28 PM Do you still sell them in your store? Or are they available on line? |
