I was delighted to receive an email from my friend Freda with a picture of one of my buttons on a crazy quilt square... I love how she tucked the hummingbird right in with her trumpet flowers...This is a lovely piece and to see the rest of the block go to http://www.sewwhatsnew-fredab.blogspot.com/ Thank you Freda!!!!
Now you can see this design in two versions...beaded and goldwork.. I think I might do it one more time with embroidery and lace just to complete the experiment...
And if you are a redhead or have any redheads in your family you will definitely want to visit this site...http://madmoe.blogspot.com/2010/09/redhead-day-in-breda.html All the years I taught first grade and kindergarten, I never had a redheaded kid I didn't adore.... The blog belongs to my granddaughter (whose car is staying with me) who is studying this semester in the Netherlands...

So that's why you like me so much!! Redheads should rule the world. But I am afraid we would lose patience with others, then start in on each other
LOL
I love your dragonflies NuMom!

Gerry - First, what a beautiful site you have! Next, would you believe we met when I was around 8 years old? I remember you strummed a few chords on a guitar for me then. You see, my mother, Joyce Kippen Jacobs, was a friend of yours.
Anyway, we seem to have traveled similar paths. I have a gardening and cooking site, www.agardenforthehouse.com. I'd really, really, love to hear from you!
now that is fun, I didn't know about the redhead day in Breda!
It's really neat to see the two variations side by side. Thanks, Cathy L
Gerry, I thought you might enjoy a post on a new corgi.
