Follow the adventures of a Midwestern girl and her quiet but creative life. Read poetry, read opinionated posts on just about anything, and get back to nature with her as she goes about her daily rounds. "my small, mortal eyes can see Eternity/ in the clouds that dissolve and then regroup endlessly"--C. Hynde

A little "bit" of horseplay
This is a little something I made from a bit I found at an antique store. I embroidered a stallion and a foal, glued the muslin to some round plastic discs (the kind used in some cross-stitching projects), then took some leather lacing and fastened the discs to the bit.
I also went up to my attic and rescued my hand-made (by a man in Iowa) Amish buggy and harness for model horses and displayed it on my Amish-made console table. I guess I've never really gotten over my love for horses that I had when I was young. Oh well, who would want to?
