Happy St. Patrick's Day


"March" by Winding Vine Designs
Inspired by Jo Ann Mullaly's "Scattered Hearts" design and my antique four leaf clover cookie cutter.
It's going to be a busy weekend, so I just wanted to stop by now and wish you a happy and safe St. Patrick's Day. It's a popular holiday here in Chicago with a big parade and the dyeing of the Chicago River a neon green. The dyeing of the river takes place right outside my office window, but I tend to stay away as the crowds can get a bit rowdy. So I will have a quiet but busy weekend in my neighborhood. Sometimes the river is still neon green when I return to the office on Monday morning. If it is, I'll try to take a picture.
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”
Colossians 3:12
Blessings, Patti

Very cute penny rug!

Happy St Patrick's Day to you too! I always wanted to go to Chicago to see the river green. This year would have been the year with the mild temps.

Enjoy your day,
O'Leanne

You made something calorie free with those cookie cutters. I have a bunch of vintage cutters but not any like that.

This is simply wonderful, Patti! Today is our eldest son's birthday...so St. Paddy's has a special place in this Irish girl's heart. I think I need to try stitching something similar for our home. Thanks for the inspiration, love it! :)
