“What the Butler Saw” popularised from a mutoscope reel from the early 1900s. The title of this feature became widely used in Britain as a generic term for devices and movies of this kind. The phrase had entered British popular culture after the 1886 divorce case of Lord Colin Campbell and Gertrude Elizabeth Blood. The trial hinged on whether their butler could have seen Lady Campbell with Captain Shaw through the keyhole of their dining room at 79 Cadogan Place, London.

Built in January 1969 for the Chicago Burlington and Quincy as their 521, this SD45 went on to join the Burlington Northern fleet in 1970. It spent over a decade serving the BN as their 6542 until they shed the flared EMD, and the Chicago and Northwestern picked it up in September 1984, gave it a coat of Zito Yellow and numbered it to their 6581. The classic locomotive only spent five years on the C&NW before being retired and sold to VMV Enterprises.

One of the remaining few Butler yard jobs crawls west onto the 124th Street Spur for their only remaining customer there - Wallboard who receives centerbeam loads of drywall in the industrial park area.
It's not only pretty rare to catch this in decent daylight, but they almost always shove a load on the head end and pull an empty out on the reverse move, so usually the shot is completely crap of the power move. In the past handful of times I've seen this job move the past couple years, these are the only salvageable shots.

I had a fat quarter pack of some Amy Butler Charm fabric. My inspiration for this quilt was a combination of looking at Kaffe Fassett's nine patch quilts as well as a vintage quilt I saw on ebay. I tried to group the colors in areas on the quilt and have 3 similar quilt blocks next to each other similar to the vintage quilt I had seen.
