Home Again!

I just got back last night. The boys and I are so glad to be home! While I was in Florida I finished up "Land of the Free."

Blackbird Designs "Land of the Free"
Fabric: 40 ct. Hand-Dyed Linen
Threads: Belle Soie silks
Started: 6/18/11 - Finished 6/22/11

This design is only 4" x 4" on 40 ct, so it stitched up pretty quick. I'm in a patriotic stitching mood - I was thinking of stitching this little fob next.

    Nicole, wanted to let you know I've been getting multiple feeds for your posts. I'm gonna un-subscribe, then re-subscribe to hopefully straighten it out. Have a great weekend! xoxo

    I love this one and got the magazine so I can start it. Wonderful for a summer piece that goes quickly. What do you plan to do with it? A tray like suggested? Beautiful stitch! pj
