it is a backyard celebration of this class....with birds flying and banners too awaiting the guests!!
How it might look framed...hmmm?
Here is saluting the flag. I kinda cheated because in my search for memory panel pages I found an old print of a flag I did years ago to look like a pieced quilt. So I cut out the letters and stripes and blue section and it really needed to be brighter and bigger (spoiled by the pinwheel!) so I took my trusty Caran d Ache water soluble crayons and enhanced the dull colors. Then I cut out some little drawn and colored stars I made and sewed them on like I did the letters. The balance of the arrangement is OFF but my sewing machine was so stubborn with this flag that I was just happy to get the letters on at all!! I kept breaking needle and knotting thread!! I am not thrilled with it but it's okay....maybe not using the old print. Would have been more funky!! Happy flag day... June 14th!!!! Enjoy!
