Oh look!!!

Everyone knows what great kits and patterns Nanette from Freda's Hive has in her etsy shop, so I got a purse kit and thought I would give it a try. Later in the week I saw her American flag pattern, OK, I know everyone knows I love pink but I also am an Americana freak (nerd); don’t you just love Benjamin Franklin?! Anyway, I got her flag pattern because it is a great take along project, my YD still plays sports and there is down time between games ; she runs off with her friends, and I sit, stitch, and chat with the ladies. This is the perfect pattern. Now, I will say that Nanette has become a very special friend, so look at what else I got from her besides the pattern. Not one, but two of her handmade ornaments, look at the detail! They will be on the tree this and every year after. She also sent one of her beautiful linens, I will NEVER use this, it is too beautiful, but I will proudly display it in my home for all to see. Thank you dear friend.

PS Now I get to start to save red and blue scrapes!!! More fabric!
