this one will also be hand pieced :D
What would she do? .... she'd be off to milk the cows, separate the cream, make some butter, whip up food for the dozen men in the fields, stoke the wood fire, make a dozen pies, hoe the garden, pick the cukes and make them into pickles, mend the socks and clothes ... and find some time in the midst of all that to do a few stitches! :)
Whew!!!!!!! I'm ever so glad that them things had a-changed, when I was The Farmer's Wife!
