O beautiful for spacious skies...


"Independence Day"
design by Falling Star Primitives

"O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!"
~Katharine Lee Bates 
I took a brief break from the "Strawberry Collection" to work on this.
I'll show a status picture on the strawberries soon...




Yesterday evening was spent celebrating with friends and watching our town's fireworks display. Today is a quiet day of "catch-up" around the house.
We'll have a barbeque dinner tonight. 

Stop by later this week and I'll post the July giveaway...

Wishing you and yours a happy and safe 4th of July!
Blessings, Patti
