Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a brand new Farmgirl Sister (#3029) and I'm thrilled to be here! Still figuring out "the ropes". I live on Long Island. We are getting baby chicks on June 20th (my first chickens ever), and I am over the moon excited.
I am also a vintage nut - love just about anything vintage, but especially vintage fabrics and linens, and I also adore thrift shopping.
Looking forward to getting to know you!
**Helena

Hi Elaine,
Nice to meet a Jersey Girl! I will definitely post pics of the chicks when they arrive. :-)
BTW, sorry for the GIANT font size I used in my intro. Didn't mean to do that, lol.
I will check out your blog.

Hello from Ga, I just made some cafe curtains out of vintage material. These will look so retro in the kitchen. When I get them up I will take a picture. (I want to wash the windows before I put them up. YUK!) The patteren is tea cups with very red ric rac at the bottom. I love vintage. Brings you back home and the good ole days. Welcome to the farm. debra e.

Hi Kate!
I am in Bay Shore (grew up in Lindenhurst), and I am always in Babylon for one thing or another. I worked for a law firm there for 10 years. Love Babylon Village! I'm so excited we are so close!!!
