The biggest celebration of the summer is the "4th Of July" :)
This Pinchicks Post may seem the same as last month but I so enjoyed making these little brooches it's fun for me :)
Betsy Ross
Is the woman that made the five pointed star on our flag.
When the country was forming they were going to place a 6 pointed star on the flag because the five pointed star was too hard to make.
She got out her scissors and showed them how to make the perfect 5 pointed star :)

DeleteI really enjoyed this post and your cameo is beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteThanks Eliz :)
DeleteVery interesting post. I haven't heard of Betsy Ross either. I love the way you've beaded the cameo and then added tatting, it's really successful. Going to follow your links, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI so glad, Thank you, hope you find someone or thing to place in a brooch I really had fun and would love to make a stitched or painted embroidery cameo one day too.
DeleteBeautiful! I have always loved Betsy Ross and her story. I grew up in Philadelphia, and I clearly remember visiting her house on Arch Street near 2nd. We knew how to get there because of a song we learned at school. I would love to go back!
ReplyDeleteWow, I visited the liberty hall and the Bell but did not think of visiting there, or that her home was there at all, I lived in Maryland and very close that it's wasn't to far, now I wished to go back so see her home, how exciting.
DeleteI have never heard of Betsy Ross before, it is a beautiful cameo, I love your beautiful design and for the 4th July, I know the song well, born on the 4th July, well it might be your Independence Day but I am a very independent lady.
ReplyDeleteHave a great 4th July
Hugs
Margaret
