Treasures Galore with a Scottish Burr

More treasures to add to the mix --

The museums of Scotland have an amazing 'collections highlights' page, full of Pictish hoards, famous paintings, Robert the Bruce's feasting cup -- even Dolly the cloned sheep! Click on every item listed, and the link takes you to crisp photos and a detailed description, not only where and why the treasure in question was found (or created, in Dolly's case), and why it's important.

I want to take more time to read through these links, but am rushing off to Show & Tell at the Denver Quilt Festival...ciao for now.
