July pinkeep ~ blueberries

I showed this stitching on my 'Celebrate' blog and today can reveal the finish. The fruit thread packs from Little House Needleworks are exactly the right size for pinkeeps so I will making all 12 to sit together in a basket. They will become part of my monthly pinkeeps now. I choose to make blueberries for July since this is the month we pick blueberries at a farm on the weekends.

For this pinkeep, I used a scrap of sage green and beige gingham for the back. The satin ribbon on the side is dark blue with both dark blue and light blue bows. I choose to combine blue and green glass head pins to reflect the colors in the stitching. This has turned out to be a very cheerful pinkeep!
