CINDY'S REQUEST

Cindy asked me to post the framed Indians when I finished stitching them.  I just finished backstitching the squaw tonight.  Bill helped me frame them.  We had to redo the warrior,
we couldn't get the same color frame.  They said they don't stock it anymore.  I might have
found it at another Joann Fabrics, but the frames were 60% off so easier to just match them

and keep the other one for another day. 

A TRADE AND A GIFT FOR MY COUSIN

Heidi has a blogging friend who posted a flag for her yard with a harness racing horse and bike.  My cousin Louise is an owner of a harness racing horse.  I wanted a flag for her.  Lillian said she would make one free and I would not let her.  That would have not at all been fair since I do not even know this blogger.
Soooo, we decided on a trade.  I would make something for her in return.  We both got our packages on the same day.  I made her two placemats with pockets for silverware, two different size crocheted boxes, one blue (shown) and a smaller on cream to match the placemats with blue napkins in it.  I also made her a dishcloth.
My cousin does not have the flag yet but she doesn't have a computer so I am safe to show it.  She will be so thrilled.
Thank you so much Lillian, you are a wonderful person to do this for me.

FINISHED AND WAITING FOR BACKSTITCHING

The stitching is finished and now she is waiting for the backstitching.  Bill and I will take the
Warrior with us to Joann Fabrics so we can be sure to get the same frame for the Squaw.
She will soon be hanging on his wall.
