Hi friends! I have a patriotic finish to share with you. This has been done for two weeks!
I wanted to wait to show you until I had it framed. 5x5 frames lie! I picked up a 5x5 frame from Michael's and the opening was truly 4 1/2 x 4 1/2. I ordered one from Walmart and it was the same thing! Three frames later... I just got a 6x6 Mill Hill frame and the opening is 5 1/2x 5 1/2🙃 Whatever! It works for me, so I am happy!
I stitched this one over one with DMC and VMSS Tarnished Gold on 32ct cream linen. I am very happy with my remake of the Bald Eagle. 🦅
See the pattern.
And I had to take out the cat and put in a 🐩 Me and my Henry❣️
To all my American friends: Happy Fourth of July!!
"in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:18
Stitching and praying,

Happy Independence Day Vickie!
Great finish! Thanks for the warning about the frames! I'll check before I buy now. :O)
Vickie, what a gorgeous patriotic piece you have stitched and framed. I really like your changes and the addition of Henry. Glad you found a frame the right size.
Have a wonderful Fourth, my friend!

Love your new patriotic stitch, Vickie! One over one on 32 for so many stitches is quite a job and you have succeeded beautifully. Adding you and Henry is a perfect addition and makes it even more special. I love stitching letters and anything patriotic so I'm really loving this great pattern. Hope you have a wonderful 4th!

Another pretty project! I agree with you about frame sizes. 🤪
Thanks for the frame info. I will be sue to measure the opening for my piece. Love you patriotic piece. Of course Henry needed to be there!
Vickie: It is a beautiful design and a perfect frame, I know what you mean about the openings not being the size they say, I have had many problems with some frames not being the right inside size.
Have a beautiful fourth.

Vickie: Putting in Henry was a perfect touch.

Third time was a charm because the frame works perfectly!!! I love that you added yourself and Henry! Hope you have a Happy and safe 4th!! Mary
Happy 4th of July, great stitching, adding Henry was just perfect
Wow! I would have never thought the opening on a frame was not the size that was advertised! Good information!
Wishing you a happy and safe 4th!
Oh what a lovely finish. Your eagle looks awesome, and of course, you and Henry, too. It's just perfect. Happy 4th of July to you and your dear family sweet friend. :)
A lovely finish, putting Henry there instead of the cat was a great idea.
Hope you had a good day yesterday.
You and Henry looks so cute on this lovely finish. Good news you finally managed to find a suitable frame with the correct aperture size.
What a delightful design! I hope your 4th was great. We had our DD and her friend for dinner, just the right amount of excitement!!
Great finish!
What a lovely finish Vickie,
hope you had a wonderful day
This is just the sweetest design, Vickie, and your changes (especially little Henry) make it even more charming! Hope you had a great 4th of July and are having a relaxing weekend :) ♥
It looks fantastic in that frame! Although I like the kitty in it, I know you had to change it to Henry, it looks adorable!
