This is what I was greeted with, a blanket of reds covering my house.

As I looked around, I was treated to this beautiful image. It made me think, who needs fireworks.

But, my neighbors did have a firework show, which seems to be going on, still;)
I am not an expert on fireworks, but here are a few that came out ok. The larger ones with bright colors had too many extra spots on them.
A few fun Spinners and interesting designs.


This one reminds me of a school of luminescent jelly fish.

And, I did get a little more done on my new piece. I messed up as usual, I cannot even follow my own patterns, lol.
I missed five stitches going up on the lady, so she is a bit shorter than she should be. I still have a bit more to go, guess it is bigger than I had planned;) SInce it is based on a fraktur, I am trying to use colors that I use with my watercolors. I do think it would be nice to use variegated floss on this piece.

Beautiful pics of the sky and fireworks. The fraktur turned out wonderful!
Love the firework photos! Your stitching looks great...who can tell that there is a mistake?
Pretty sky and fireworks! Looks to be a great evening! Your stitching is coming along nicely! It looks like the lady is just right for that guy to me!
I can not do cross stitch even tho I would dearly love to. My eyesight is so terrible that I would have it in a total mess.
Love your design and it would make a lovely stitchery too.
Enjoyed the firework pictures.
Hugs, LenZie
I like the colors you chose for your piece and I like that you didn't use overdyes, although I'd like to see what that looks like. But I think it looks great as it is and I never would have noticed you were off on stitching the lady.
Sooooo pretty, Debbie! Your stitching is coming along nicely!
