I've been so excited about the sunflower blooming in my garden this week that I decided I had to finish the Old Crow Salt Box House cross-stitch piece. And I did!
I was having so much fun stitching that last sunflower that
I almost forgot to add the chimneys to the house.
Good thing that didn't take long!
This fits right in with my other sunflower pieces on display for the month of August.
So now I'm back to working on "Hello Summer!"
There really isn't too much left on this one - just the bottom row of motifs -
some lemons, another watermelon piece, and finish the border.
I can have this done before fall comes, right?!
I'll be stitching on this today for my Slow Sunday Stitching -
Linking up with Kathy's Quilts.

Love that pop of the blue saltbox on your table! I bet the bees are happy to have that sunflower. The pink zinnias look pretty next to it. Have a great Sunday!

Woo Hoo! Love the blue Saltbox. Your August display on your cute little chest is absolutely lovely. I was looking over Melisa’s house patterns yesterday. So many to choose from. You are just about done with Hello Summer. I know you will get it done before Fall. 🙂
Just lovely sunflowers--and that stitchery is so pretty for your Summertime display...Lovely works--hugs, Julierose
The Old Crow Salt box turned out beautifully. It's the time of year for those here too, though I've not seen many. I've been AWOL from the computer this week, but did catch up on all your blog posts. Cograts on doing so well with this year's goals. Happy stitching this week.
Love the sunflowers! Such a pretty display!
Your August table display is beautiful. . .the addition of the blue saltbox piece is the piece that pulls the arrangement all together!
I bet you can finish Hello Summer this week! I love you sunflower pieces! What a pretty display.
I love how that salt box turned out! So pretty. Enjoy your week.
Another pretty finish for your little display table. Your salt box fits in beautifully, Diann. Your lone sunflower makes me smile. Standing grand and tall, singing a song of late summer.
Love your tittle pillow finish. I think it would be nice to live in that house surrounded by sunflowers! Sarah quilting by the sea
Old Crow Saltbox House is finished nicely and looks great with the other sunflower pieces.
I love sunflowers and had a bank of them up at the farm. I have two now that are accidental in the pots on the deck. One is starting to bloom. Old Crow Saltbox is just lovely, Diann. Such a great slow stitching hobby, isn't it!
your sunflowers are still great looking!!
Aaw your saltbox looks amazing, Diann and looks adorable with all of your sunflower decor. I cannot thank you enough for stitching it. Your real sunflower is magnificent; you definitely should be proud of growing that beauty. Hugs
