... Busy times....

Greetings from the heart of golf country~

As the Men's US Open and Women's US Open comes to town, I will be pausing for two short weeks from my finishing for a mini break.....We have been prepping and preparing for this huge event for quite some time....If you have an order in with me, I will be resuming soon~~

I did want to share a Patriotic finish today... I love Beggars 4th by Threadwork Primitivesand knew I wanted to make something special with it..... With my love for wools, antique grungy buttons, charms and vintage seam tape, here is what I came up with~

Red check homespun....wools... I just love things with a pocket~


image
...the Freedom charm was perfect on the wool heart...

image
...I also love to tie scissors and skeins of threads inside....


image
I really enjoy taking a pretty stitched piece and creating a unique accessory to incorporate into seasonal decor....

Leaving you with one of yesterday's day photos of the PutterBoy statue at Pinehurst No. 2......

Enjoy your day~

Faye - This finish is just gorgeous! I'm stitching the same design right now, and am not sure I like the looks of using one thread on 35 count. Yours looks fuller. May I ask what you used?

Penny said...

Beautiful finish! I love the little thread spools!
