....Sweet Patriotic stitches....(photo stream corrected)

.... What a blessed day~~ Happy Birthday America!



... I have all but begged Tracy Riffle to come out of retirement.... I am "craving" her Hands to Work designs..... What can I say?~ They just speak to me.... And, thank you Marly of Samplers & Santas for reminding me that I had Sweet Liberty in my basket~~~ What a sweet stitch!

And, Americana decor wouldn't be complete without a couple of Nan Lewis's beautiful Threadwork Primitive designs done up.....

Love those finishes! Maybe you could persuade Tracy to design a chart just for you. That would be special. Happy 4th!

I wish Tracy would come out of retirement as well. I love all of her designs, but can't say that I have seen this one. Maybe that is a good thing though, as you know from my PSS posts, I have a sticthing addiction issue. Happy 4th.
