Scraps of leather cover the floor as an Amish worker uses a foot pedal to drive a sewing machine inside Brodhead Collar Shop, where the Amish make horse collars by hand near Drakesville in southeast Iowa's Davis County. It is among only a handful of rural Iowa counties in the 2010 Census to gain population (2.4 percent). Much of that population growth is due to a steadily growing Amish population.
