February Freebie: American Primitive ~ Octagon Flowers

American Primitive ~ Octagon Flowers

I had fun designing  American Primitive ~ Octagon Flowers and I hope you have fun stitching it!  The design came about because I wanted something new for our front hall that was early American in style, with a bit of whimsey and just the right colors!  It’s under my copyright and free for your personal, non-commercial use only.

Happy Stitching!

Thank you for all your lovely comments.  It’s wonderful to hear from you!

Stitch or paint in beautiful light. Talk in bed with my husband late at night and then go for an early breakfast... ie, have his total undivided attention, and luxuriate in it. Talk with our son without cell phones, ipods, etc at a family meal. Go to lunch with a friend and laugh till our sides hurt. Browse in a good library or bookstore. Go to the theater when both the play and the seats are good. Stay home and do absolutely nothing. Read on my Kindle! *~*~*~* ETHNICITY: Mixed-American Mutt of Irish (97%), Welsh, and many other slivers of ethnicity.
