Red, White and Blue Stitching

My latest red, white and blue crazy quilt project is completed and ready for assembly:

Little Betsy Ross looks quite content stitching on her American flag!  I have one more patriotic piece that I'm going to do and then I can sew them all up into hanging ornaments.

In other news, I added some new earrings by Kathi to the shops:

Pretty pink enamel flowers dangle from very comfortable to wear, sterling silver leverbacks!  Kathi thought these would make nice Mothers Day gifts!

In other news, and this is big!  Allison Aller's beautiful lost crazy quilt has been found!  It was MIA for over a year and now it's safe and sound, back in Allie's home.  Hop on over to her blog to see it!

Stitching Uncle Sam

I've always thought that red, white and blue were a very cheerful and happy color combination.  I thought I'd start on my Patriotic Door Hanging Pillows a little bit early.  Uncle Sam is my first:

I'm going to sit here for a bit and stitch before I head over to Mom's for some coffee.

Victorian Uncle Sam Tussy Mussys

I had to share these beautiful Victorian Tussy Mussys that mom made:

Are these unique or what?  I've never seen a tussy mussy for the 4th of July and these are just so patriotic!  Mom couldn't decide what color to go with so she made Red Uncle Sam Tussy Mussys and Blue Uncle Sam Tussy Mussys.

I just added these to our Boutique!  Now it's time for me to make dinner!  More tomorrow.....
