Monday Stitching and Quilting and Pop- A Patriotic Freebie!

                                  POP!!!

Good  evening, Sweet peas! Two posts in a day. What's wrong with me? Lol   Well I just wanted to pop in and share my quilting and stitching update for the week and link to all of the fabulous link parties. Have you checked them out? I have them listed down below. You will surely find some inspiration in each post. 

Ok now on to the updates. 

I have been  plugging away on Stitching with the Housewives "Freedom Farm" gifted to me by dear Joan.  It is pure doggone cuteness!!! Don't look too close though; I have made a few boo boos. I hope to finish the flowers today.  

I did finish Stitching with the Housewives " Betsy Ross Flag Co." I have an idea for a finish if I find the perfect finishing piece.  Thank you , Joan.

Did you notice the darling clothespin flag that Patricia made me? She is super creative. Thank you , dear friend. 

Doing the happy dance!!!!💃💃💃 

I finished the binding on the flag quilt. I just hung it on the hoosier for a quick photo. It is not going to hang there.   

I am still stitching patriotic right up to the day . Last night I stitched up the Pop Stamp.   This is a "Choose your own colors chart" . But if you are interested, I used DMC 931, 311, 310, 498, white and 782. 

If you are interested in stitching this piece,  just grab , the images. For printing tips, refer to the post Tips for Printing which has loads of tips from my sweet friends. 

Pop goes along with the other patriotic stamps that I have shared so far which are  Mini Patriotic Mason Jar Stamp  and Pop Goes the Fireworks Truck Stamp.  

My afternoon task will be sewing up the little pillows and adding trim.  

👀Eeeh! A Sneaky Peek of another patriotic stamp. 👀

   

        It's the beginning of the week so you know what that means- it's time to write out this week's goals. Have  you jotted yours down yet?
