DW swears by Udder Cream.

Brief Product History
Redex Industries of Salem, Ohio, makes UDDERLY SMOOTH® UDDER CREAM. Originally, thirty years ago, this product was intended for use on dairy cows. Since then, its use has now expanded to humans to smooth dry, chapped skin. According to the web site, "Product uses also include: Diabetes skin care, Hand and Foot Syndrome- a side effect of chemotherapy drugs, Chamois cream for bicyclists and Needlework."
...
Product Ingredients
The ingredients of UDDERLY SMOOTH® UDDER CREAM are Allantoin, Dimethicone, Lanolin Oil and Proplyene Glycol in an Emollient Base.

I can attest that it does have a light smell/odor, but is not 'scented' (What self-respecting cow would want scented udders?)

Made me chuckle! I have also used Udder Cream in the past. It seemed to work
quite well. Quilter's use it to relieve sore fingers, also Bag Balm(used on cow's udders), which is quite greasy, but works very well also.

Used bag balm on our milking cows. Wonderful stuff even though I was young and no problem then with skin on hands and fingers. Biofreeze is a cold therapy.

Hi Kitt,

When I first started hand-quilting I learned about bag balm from a seasoned quilter. I did not realize what the intended use was for, so went looking for it at the pharmacy. After a few puzzled looks from the staff I was directed to a farm supply store by an employee that grew up on a dairy farm.
We live and learn. It truly is remarkable at healing! CeCe.

You've found us out! I design—she constructs/quilts (and crochets, and needlepoints, and what-have-you...)

It is always amazing to hear of a husband/wife quilting team! In my part of the world there are a few of them.
I know of a couple who do the opposite-she designs/constructs and he does the hand-quilting. Works very well for them and they produce some beautiful quilts. CeCe.
