Two Shakes of A Lamb's Tail- St. Patrick's Day Parade of Freebies

 Top of the Morning to You!   Welcome , sweet friends.  

Today is a perfect day- perfect to "put on my  green " and celebrate my Irish roots by having a parade - a parade of stitches that is!

May your joys be as deep as the oceans

Your troubles as light as its foam

And may you find sweet peace of mind

Gosh ! That parade was done in 2 shakes of a lamb's tail!  Wasn't it? Lol.  

Hmm! And I just noticed something! I have failed to stitch an ewe this year. Yikes! I better get on the stick. I do love ewes! 

Thank you for the sweet Tuesday visit and... 

As always,

Happy Stitching and Quilting, y'all

  5. I have the Spring Saltbox still on the wall - with the greens and red, I thought it looked a bit Christmas-y so kept it there for the season - I plan to replace it with one of the summer ones. I have a little Irish in me so maybe I'll have the time to get one more "greenie" in. Thank you for all the projects. Blessings!

    1. I hadn't thought of pulling Spring Green out for Christmas- that is a great idea. I will have to remember that, Donna. I hope to stitch at least one more St. Patty's piece too. Fingers crossed. Lol. Hugs and Blessings.
