I hope everyone in the US had a great 4th of July. Mine was quiet, just the way we wanted it. A cookout and a lot of stitching.
Please excuse the picture. My neighbor is mowing his grass near my patio and I don't want to get dirt on it. It is a fun stitch. The silks are wonderful! The colors are beautiful. The weather is going to be in the 90's this week-end (cooler than most of you ) so I see time in the house with the A/C.
I did put this little design in a box that I had. The fabric is a light blue color, not the white that the picture shows. Cheryl and I did some thrifting a couple of weeks ago. I found this darling sewing case for $20.00. I will be painting it when the weather isn't so humid. Haven't decided on the color yet.
I love the shelf inside for spools of thread. So cute.
The blue frog and the green frog are ceramic. These I found with Cheryl. The one with the pansies, I found in my basement while I was looking for some decorations. I bought this many years ago, while I lived in Georgia, at a craft fair. I put a small pair of scissors in it. I had totally forgotten that I had it. Please excuse the weird format. Blogger wasn't too friendly today. Thanks for all the comments on my last post. I appreciate them so much. Keep cool and safe. Until next time ..... Happy Stitching! Deborah

I like the color it is. But, I could also see it white with roses, too! Isn't the AC wonderful. Beautiful stitching.
Your WIP is so pretty. I also love the patriotic header.
Itty Bitty is looking great! Wonderful thrift finds - especially the sewing box - terrific!
Wow, love that sewing box and the frogs! Lovely WIP -- that is just so pretty! Love the pins and needles design too. Can't wait for cooler temps. Thank goodness for ac indeed!
Love that piece you are working on - beautiful colors! And your flower frogs are cool - I don't think I've ever seen ceramic ones. I think a trip to the thrift store may be in my future - when it gets cooler! Its was over 100 today and that's the forecast for tomorrow. Thank goodness for AC!
Great new stitching progress and I love your new sewing box. Happy 4th July to you.
Absolument merveilleux ! bisous de FRANCE

Those motifs in different colour silks is so pretty! Lovely progress so far. Cute pattern for a cute box :) I'm guessing you'll be keeping pins and needles in it? ^.^ What a find! Very cool looking sewing case. Cute ceramic frogs too.
