Baby Bear Blanket

 Happy Saturday! I crocheted this big granny square baby blanket this week and then crocheted the bear applique for it last night .. Isn't it the cutest !

 For the blanket I used 2 skeins each white and light blue I lOve This Yarn from Hobby Lobby .. I made a big granny square using 4 rounds of each color .. making sure to turn the balnket each round ..If you don't turn it it gets lopsided.

 I found the bear applique on Etsy from NellasCottage .. it was easy and turned out very cute.. I did not use buttons for the eyes I just crocheted a little ball shape right onto the head ..This was very quick to make ..another blanket for the grandson to be ..

Old Glory

Good morning! 

This is Old Glory from Little House Needleworks..

 Chelsea stitched this and I finished it up for her this weekend ..This was one of her Stitchmania starts.. I mounted the stitching on sticky board .. I used a blue plaid also mounted on Sticky board and glued those 2 together.. I found the frame at Good will and chalk painted it white .. I used the backing in the frame and wrapped the red ticking around it ..

****Please remember if you copy my finishing ideas that you be considerate and give a link to my blog or facebook page..****

I ripped and knotted red gingham fabric and covered 2 buttons with the blue plaid .. I used the buttons for the centers of the daisies I glued on ..

I stitched this back in 2015 and here is my finish

America!

 Good morning!
Red, White and Blue all over the chalkboard this Memorial Day ..I love buntings and all patriotic decor ...

 The chickens on the bottom holding the buntings ... a fence with bunting and flowers..

 A farmhouse with window boxes full of flowers and buntings..whats not to love? :) This chalkboard hangs on the wall into my kitchen from the family room and gets changed out for the seasons .. I found the frame at a rummage sale and had a board cut to fit that I painted with chalkboard paint..

Thank you to the men and women who serve our country ...

My Buzzy String

 Good morning!
I finished up my Buzzy String from Lizzie Kate this morning.. This was only 2 days of stitching .. so cute and fun  ..

 These are all the floss colors I used...

Remember Chelsea stitched the Buzzy String and I finished it for her ? Chelsea's husband had made us these boards to mount them on from some wood planks . We both have quite a few of the Lizzie Kate Strings so we can change these out because I used magnets and sheet metal ..

 It is adorable .. I haven't decided where it will go in the house but I can't wait to display it .. For now it is sitting on the dining room table waiting for this weeks flosstube!

 I used plaid homespun for the back of mine ... added a twine flower and some ribbon and torn fabric and a bee in the center.. I added it to the top of the homespun so each of the strings I stitch will have a different decoration ...

 This was my day 21 Stitchmaynia start ...
