Dezinaworld - Town and Country

You can't keep a girl down on the farm, once she's had a taste of the big city.   My city girl is compliments of Finecrafted Designs.

Three Muses - Bird

I think this fellow was in the woods outside my bedroom window last night.  Around 3 a.m. I heard a flutter of wings and soft who-whos.   I love the sound of an owl at night.  There's something comforting about it.  I fell back asleep to his mnutterings!

Digital Whisper - Circus

Long ago and far away, ad men used to precede the coming of a rural traveling circus, and pay farmers a pittance for using their barns for advertising.    Sadly, most of the barns have faded into memory.   Here's a digital collage of what one might have looked like.  Thanks for your visit.

Three Muses - Crockery

The very word "crock" conjures up for me images of my grandmothers' homes, primitive furniture, soft, worn old quilts,  rag rugs on old pine floors, wonderful smells from the kitchen, old crocks here and there with the patina of many uses and many hands, the smell of oil lamps,  the laughter of family togetherness, and the faces of beloved family members now long gone.   Thanks to Marie for this challenge that took me down memory lane!

Three Muses - Abstract

Once I'd finished this, I questioned whether or not it was really abstract.   Oh well, I had fun with it, at any rate.

Take a Word - Sewing

When my children were small, I sewed a lot.  I could make a nifty pant suit for about $4.00.  Today that won't even buy the pattern, and most young mothers today have full time jobs and don't have time to sew anyway!  Times they are a-changin' .....

Digital Whisper - Ladybug

Our challenge is "ladybug".  That recalls the old childhood ditty "Ladybug, Ladybug, fly away home.  Your house is on fire and your children will burn".    Does anyone else remember that?
