Sunday Stamps: the letter "S"

 Good day and welcome to my blog.  It is a cold cloudy day in the American Midwest.  It's Sunday morning, and time for Sunday Stamps.

We are up to the letter S in our tour of the alphabet, and I have some older stamps from Sweden to share.

A hawk, and a cute seal.  The postmark seems to indicate these are from 1988.

Next week:  the letter "T".

Sunday Stamps: the letter "R"

 Good day and welcome to my blog.  It is a cold blustery day in the American Midwest, and the snow predicted for this area did not really develop.

It's time for Sunday Stamps.

We are up to the letter "R" and I have some stamps of pottery, that I think are from the same series of stamps that SeeitonaPostcard showed.

On the left is some pottery from the Maramures (Marmatia) area of Romania.  On the right, pottery from Valcea area.  (I am sorry, I cannot reproduce the actual letters of the Romanian alphabet).

Both stamps are from 2007 and were shared years ago on this blog.

Sunday Stamps: the Letter "Q"

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a sunny Sunday morning, and time for Sunday Stamps.

We are up to the letter "Q" and this is easy for me, as I am a quilter and I have collected Quilt stamps:

This is from a collection of stamps of Amish quilts.  The Amish use solid fabrics in subdued colors, traditional pieced patterns, and finish with wonderful quilting.  The quilts are considered pieces of American folk art.
