Crafting Americana

Here we are at our craft group.  I thought I'd share our patriotic project.

 Kim always sets up a fun table for our crafting pleasure.  Jann has got the jump on the rest of us.

 Here is everyone who attended with their projects.  Starting on the left are Joanne,We are mostly cleaned up ... There are ten of us in this group, but a turn out of 7 is typical, as we are all busy girls. 

Here is the parade of the finished projects.  Our friend Shirley made us all pin wheel kits.  I think Margo's turned out adorable. I love how she added the scrabble tiles, which was one of my contributions.

 This is Ann's creation. I love her fancy starred paper straws she used for her pinwheels.

 Jann made hers into a tribute to the seamstress, Betsy Ross.

 Jann brought back Blue Bell ice cream containers from Texas! Isn't Joanne's amazing.  I love the bow from a flag idea.

 Someone else brought the tinsel sprigs. Shirley always does amazing things.  Don't you love it?

 Don't you just LOVE Kim's picket fence?  What could be more American than that?

The last one is mine ... Kim provided the flag lady graphic and the star on the base, Jann the container,  and the sparkler box addition, Shirley shared the pinwheels kits and the sparkly sprigs. I don't recall who shared the milk caps and sparkly filler, but thank you friend. I love the ideas and materials we all share.

Here's the whole group!  I hope your Fourth of July is fun, memorable and colorful too.

I'm sharing this post on Jann's Share Your Cup Thursday.
