"Old Glory"

This week it was time for me to switch gears.

I had been working on an embroidery

while I had been recently traveling.

In fact, it was a pattern from Crabapple Hill Studios

that I had purchased over a year ago while

attending one of Meg Hawkey's wonderful retreats.

 Now it's done.

 "Old Glory"

A patriotic design done in brighter

more contemporary floss colors.

The part that draws the most attention 

is the use of gold bugle beads to 

look like a sparkler.  

 Too cute!

I was determined I could find something

in my stash that would work for the pillow.

I eventually found the perfect back and cording fabric.

A piece that has to be about 20 years old, but 

it worked.

(Never give up your stash!)

Summer is the time for 

 flowers, fireworks and flags.

 

This little pillow is going to be enjoying

the summer months on my back porch.

Until Next Time-

Kyle
