Usefulness




"Usefulness"
strawberry threadkeeper by Notforgotten Farm


I started stitching this as soon as it was released in 2015.
So happy to complete it this year during strawberry season.


That sweet little strawberry caught my eye immediately!
Such a unique little addition!


I used the same long stitches to finish off the seams.


Strawberry season started wonderfully this year - lots of rain and cool sunny days brought back thick plants with tons of flowers.
But sudden steady high temps, brought it all quickly to a halt and we only harvested about 5 pounds.


Still enough for one batch of Strawberry Lush - the dessert of choice for the men here on Winding Vine.


Therefore God also highly exalted him
 
and gave him the name that is above every name,

so that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.
~  Philippians 2:9-11

Blessings, Patti

Congratulations on your strawberry finish! I like your strawberry adorned spools. How do you end up with a "flat" stuffed finish? I really like that look. Enjoy your week!
