Fresh Watermelon…Now Ready!

Yesterday my sweet sweet hubby allowed me a couple hours to go get my oil changed and to go sit and stitch with the ladies at my LNS. Technically the Saturday stitch-in is the 2nd Saturday of the month…but there’s a group that shows up every Saturday. I haven’t been able to go in quite a while, so it was nice to see all of those friends again!

I was mostly done. All I had to do was stitch the last couple rows of the watermelon sign and add the blackbird and ants…and then…voila! Finis!

Here’s my favorite part…the ants!

I was also able to start on a quickie little chart/kit yesterday at the stitch-in, but I probably wont’ post a pic of that until it’s finished. (I know…I tried to pull out Geranium House to work on, but the stitching was at home, even though the chart was in the bag…strange!)

Here’s hoping you have a happy day!

That's a great finish, and I too love those little ants! Cute touch to that pattern. And, by the way, congrats on BIL coming home. Please be sure to THANK HIM from our family for his service and bravery. Because of men and women like him....we can continue to have freedom.
