Loved, loved your library post. I have a Kindle too, but still love the feel and smell of the pages of a book.<br />Your barn picture brought me a sence of peace. Would love to see a barn quilt on it.<br />Do you see many of those? I enjoyed several hunts for them on my last two trips to Kentucky.Beverly @ My Sew Sweet Studiohttp://www.mysewsweetstudio.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-33737441288307260782011-07-31T11:25:36.928-04:002011-07-31T11:25:36.928-04:00You are absolutely right...You are absolutely right...VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-4579027850676260932011-07-31T10:31:30.383-04:002011-07-31T10:31:30.383-04:00Encantador blog el tuyo, un placer haberme vuelto ...Encantador blog el tuyo, un placer haberme vuelto por tu espacio.<br /><br />Saludos y un abrazo.La sonrisa de Hiperionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11762507269296675720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-90066644805195627672011-07-31T09:22:30.554-04:002011-07-31T09:22:30.554-04:00Thanks.
