TAKE A WORD - GREEN


Marie has chosen GREEN as our word for inspiration at Take a Word this week and that reminded me of  St Patrick's Day and the Irish cousins!

Credit to Hidden Vintage for the shamrock and the Irish cousins.

Thank you for looking.

Love the shamrock [we call it clover here] and the stitching.

How fabulous, Ann. Love the collaged green shamrock. We have clover, but it looks different from what I know as shamrocks.

This is jsut a fantastic creation - so clever to put wverything "in" the shamrock shape!! Love all the green too!

Yep, those bonnie redheaded lassies from Ireland. Lassies? Well, whatever. They are very cute.

You have brought all the bits together just in time for St Patty's day. I love the patchwork shamrock and those red headed girls.
