Patriotic Needlepoint UPDATED

Interested in a little project to stitch over the 4th of July holiday? Ruth Schmuff has a kit all ready to mail to you, complete with threads and stitch guide.  (This link was wrong. I have fixed it now and apologize!)

If you want to pick from a large collection of red, white and blue designs, Needlepoints Ltd can fix you right up.

Labors of Love just released a bald eagle clip on bird.  You can't tell it from the photograph, but this double sided canvas comes with the clip on hardware.

A little short of cash?  These free patterns are perfect for using up spare threads while making clear you are an American and proud of it.

Whatever you choose to stitch during the USA's 236th birthday, stay safe.

You are right, Goldy. Thanks for pointing this out. I'll go fix it.

(That's what I get for having the power go out. Things publish before I can double-check them!)
