Some country ideas....

I came across a pattern last night that stopped me in my tracks. I have a file on my computer that I collect patterns. It's probably got 200 patterns in it. I want to do everyone of them. But the pattern I saw last night on Twitter is a must. So cute and unusual. It sparked me to do this blog today with a country cottage, shabby chic, homey theme. Take a look at the quaint things I found.
