Elegant Fruit Dish Embroidery Pattern

A friend of mine uploaded this elegant fruite dish pattern on flickr.com.

It has set my mind to thinking I would like to find a "lot" of plain flour sack towels in muslin cotton (white or creme) to embroider a bunch of my embroidery patterns on them as Christmas gifts to friends and relatives.

It appears Christmas in July as struck me again. Last year at this time I went nuts sewing quilt blocks and throws in my holiday prints.

I think there should be a mid-year holiday. Waiting 12 months is too long to wait.

I sound just like my son, Avery, who has a birthday right before Christmas. He is celebrating now that he is 9 and 1/2. Those halves are important that his young age!
