Happy 4th

Happy 4th of July!  It is a lovely day here.  The trail was busier than usual today.  I've been to the Farmer's Market and I found some tart cherries.  There is nothing better than a tart cherry pie to celebrate on the 4th of July.  The bad part is having to pit all those cherries.  But I'll do that later this afternoon when I need a break from stitching.  I also was able to buy some of the best chocolate covered orange peel in the entire world.

 I'm going to have to make it last for more than just today.

I finished off some stitching into a pin.  It was a round robin piece at Celebrations last year.

I also finished off Ophelia's needleroll.  This is what made me want to take the class.

So it is only fitting that I get it done first. It is quite tiny as it is stitched over 1 on 40 count linen.  Look at that teeny needle page.   I'm going to work on the memory book next.
God bless America!
