It's Memorial Day!

 Happy Memorial Day!
I had finished stitching Old Glory from Little House Needleworks the other night ..and this is how I finished it off.

 I had found this clipboard frame at Michael's a few weeks ago ( I know another clipboard frame from Michaels:) I loved how this stitched piece looked on it. I had trouble with the blue homespun check ..it would just cooperate and line up straight.I turned it sideways and the squares are on the diagonal now. it looks much better than crooked lines.


 It is sitting inside the boxwood wreath I made from clippings from our yard..and the dried hydrangea is also from our yard.
The bowl and the urn are from the Goodwill sitting on a vintage scale . The upside down basket is also from Goodwill.


Thanks so much to all the service men and women who sacrifice for our country ..

Another awesome post. I've tried to fix my "comment blogger" problem and think I've got it right but not sure. Visit my blog so you can see my clipboard and shout-out to you for the idea.

Priscilla, I love the clipboard frame! I scored a huge clipboard with two clips at a thrift a while ago and I've been trying to think of just what I want to do with it. Using a large stitching is an idea. I love the fabric turned on the diagonal! Super cute! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
