God bless America, land that I love,
Stand beside her, and guide her,
Through the night, with the light from above,
From the mountains, to the prairies
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, my home sweet home,
God bless America! My Home Sweet Home!
- Irving Berlin, God Bless America
The house is decorated with buntings on the porch railings, all of my patriotic stitchery is scattered around, and of course a few old decorations. I just love the colors of red, white, and blue. Course, more of the old fashion muted tones. Looking around at what I have stitched I have a lot more that needs to be done. Sorry, not much to show but my mind is racing around thinking of what I forgot in the stash to stitch. Since it is a rainy cold night tonight I will have to stash dive tonight.Over the weekend I got a chance to run to my local
LNS with friends. Course, that means never leaving empty bag. So, the most important purchase had to be the newest Loose Feathers pattern called "It's Berry Time". I bought the material called for but made a change in the thread selection. I selected Gentle Arts Pomegranate. What do you think?
Sorry, guess the picture is kind of dark. I will have to try again after I start stitching it up. Not the greatest in picture taking.
Of course, I couldn't pass up a Lizzie Kate boxer kit. I just loved the saying and will have to put this one out for everyone to see and get a chuckle from. It is me.....
Okay, another bad picture. Guess that is a good indication of how my day went. Oh well.....
Lastly, I got another Shepherd's Bush kit called "Home". I love the hat that you attach to the sheep. Red, White, and Blue..... of course.
Not a lot done on the ABC Lessons but still wanted to provide an update of my progress.
This morning we woke up to find out that it had rained last night and that more of the
lilies in the garden had bloomed. I had to run back into the house and grab the camera so I could share them with you. ENJOY....
Well, Brinkley and Josie are being pests and want me log off and play. Have a great holiday weekend and stay safe.
