Should I share this? Its a bit awful but as kids we didn't think so. On summer nights we use to pull "the light" off of lightening bugs and set them on our ring finger and pretend it was a diamond. There, its out there now. No tv to watch, I suppose.
I put the Summer Stitches all together for the 1st time. Till now, I just had my fingers crossed that it would all come out ok. I'm kind-of thinking cute, cute, cute. 3 more to go.

Your stitcheries are just the cutest designs!! I've never seen lightning bugs in real life but I probably would have been tempted to make diamond rings too.
ReplyDeleteComplete cuteness!!! The patchwork frames are icing on the "cute cake" ;) (I can't believe RachelDaisy has never seen a lightning bug in real life! *gasp*)
ReplyDeletebeautiful stitches! this is going to be a very bright and happy quilt! :)
ReplyDeleteyes, Rachaeldaisy, where do you live? For years we lived in Minn. and Chicago and didn't notice alot of lightening bugs, but now we live in no-place indiana. Its rural and there are lightening bugs and all their cousins. Thanks for the sweet comments on my stitches everyone. I appreciate them.
ReplyDeleteI love the ice cubes in the glass, so adorable!
ReplyDeletelove the combination of embroidery and quilting, also your swoon blocks (I have never seen a lightening bug either)
