Patriotic Finishing Pieces

 A couple of weeks ago Denise sent me a photo of a Freedom Flock that she had finished and she was showing me the frame. Denise had found it online and it was on sale when she got it. I immediately went to Hobby Lobby's website and couldn't find it on there, but I kept thinking about it.

Debbie is so good about saving all the good stuff she sees on flosstubes and Instagram and sharing it all with me. Last week she showed me a "pear" that Recovering Monogamous Stitcher had shown. If you go to about the 12:45 mark, you will see the finished pear. She used this little patriotic hair "bow" on top of the pear and it was so cute.


After adding a couple of the patriotic hair bows for both to the online cart for us, I went searching to see if they had the patriotic frames back in stock and they did! Not on sale but I showed Debbie and she liked it too so we each ordered one of those.


I hope to get projects finished in time to use both of these this year but, if not, there's always next year (I hope!).

I had already checked our local Hobby Lobby and they didn't have the frames. When I was back in there after seeing the hair bow, I checked on that and they didn't have that either, though they have rows and rows of patriotic items. My guess is that Hobby Lobby has LOTS of patriotic fun things, as well as other seasonal items from time to time, that are on their website but not in the stores - maybe in some but not in all so I'm going to start keeping a closer watch on the website.

  2. I stopped by HL today to look for this frame. I didn’t see in it with the frames but I asked someone after showing them the picture from your blog and they said it was probably in the military department. It was! So if you want more, look in the military area.

I'm hoping this is the end of the finger story.  At this point in my life, I think what scares me the most about aging is the medical ca...
