Today is Flag Day so I thought it appropriate for my Stroll piece today to showcase a flag.
The piece is Old Glory by Shepherd's Bush and I stitched it in 2002. I bought the mat from Jill Rensel.....isn't it perfect?
Well, I am back to reality with a day full of laundry, grocery shopping, watering flowers etc..
No stitching last night as my grandson is in baseball playoffs. Tonight will be the deciding game for the season championship. They've worked so hard...fingers crossed they pull out a win! My son-in-law is one of the coaches and they promote team spirit ...... no grandstanding.....it's so nice to see these boys work together and support each other. Last night the commissioner had to make an announcement before the game about parents behavior. Evidently there had been some screaming and cursing from some of the opposing teams parents over the weekend...how very sad!
Thanks for stopping by and your"twisted threads" of friendship!

Your Flag piece is gorgeous, Stasi. Hope the baseball playoffs go well for your grandson's team. It is nice to hear that team spirit is promoted since there is no "I" in team.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. I had never seen this pattern before. How lovely. Especially with this mat. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteStasi this is such a beautiful piece. I'm very fond of Shepherds Bush stitches and I love all of their patriotic ones. I hope your grandson's team does well tonight but they already have won learning team spirit. It is what I love most about sports how it can bring people together. Shame on some of those parents! RJ
ReplyDeleteHope the baseball game was fun and that all the spectators behaved!
