Blue of the Red, White and Blue

This also marks that I 'touched the wall' on the right side of the project. Yippee!!!!!

Christmas in July?

This was a Christmas Grab Bag from Needlework Corner. Fabric, Lizzie Kate, floss, a dragon ornament, Blackbird Designs and one has fabric, and more ornaments. Not bad at all.

Then we have a small Wicked project that will fit in a small tin necklace, another ornament and beads for an upcoming project. I might have to steal myself away from the Blue Ribbon Patriotic project and do that Wicked necklace before fall gets here.

A Sailing we will go - -

Well, we now have some sail boats. This and the block block are on the lower edge of the project. I have touched three walls now!!!

Blue Ribbon Stash

I love these colors...... I am not sure when I will work on this one but I do love the colors.

We have stars and cherries - -

I did get a bit more done. I love these blocked patterns as I feel like I am getting stuff done as I finish each section. Heads Up: I have been stitching models for Prairie Grove Peddler. I understand that the two charts will be released this week. When they are, I can share some of my own photos. Hint: Fall and Christmas are coming..... LOL

Checkerboard Parts

Each little square will be outlined and stars added with bright gold. This little squares got very boring and I am glad to have them done.

A bit of craziness....

I have a friend at the pool that is turning 80 years old this month. Her family gave her a surprise birthday party just yesterday. My friend, Celeste, has been teasing me for two years about decorating a noodle for her. I found some plastic cord, bright beads and an Hawaiian lei. I took the lei apart and strung the flowers in with the beads. I then wrapped the string to the noodle. Later I added a string of purple jingle bells and a rear view mirror. Celeste was thrilled with her noodle. I am sure I will see it at the pool tomorrow morning. Just looking at the noodle makes me laugh.
