  1. hah! It’s warm ENOUGH. It’s been right around 60 the last few days, and I just can’t wait any longer!It’s part of the original fabric. It was an old feed bag! We found it in an old farm house my husband’s family was left and I just couldn’t resist it!

  2. The bag is so very very chic and utilitarian at the same time, right on trend. And I googled the name( being semi-local too :))and it came up in an old death records search about a farmer who died trying to save his sheep heard from a ram?? So a bit of a tribute I guess, and a bit of history lesson too. His story lives on….Thanks so much for the post, I learned something , I look forward to the tutorial, enjoy that bag!

  3. Thanks Marianne! That’s very interesting. We know that G.Willis Bateman was the grandfather of the man who left the old farmhouse to my husband’s family, where we found the feedbag I used for this. I wonder if that’s what happened to him! How interesting.
