Today is national watermelon day! (actually it was Saturday August 3rd!) It is my absolute favorite fruit and has been ever since I was a little girl… nothing’s changed and I usually have some cut up in the fridge for that refreshing summertime snack and pick me up.
This is a Charlie Haper canvas called “Watermelon Moon” Is this not the cutest? I really do love Charlie Harper pieces and there probably isn’t one that I wouldn’t stitch! How about you?
Well that was laaaaaaaaaaast week when I wrote this blog so brilliantly and then poof! while I was sleeping my blog disappeared into cyber space not to be found, seen or heard from for a very long time. I still have a little something, something in this blog of mine that is misbehaving…sorta like AlleyCat…which keeps me from logging on… Hopefully I will figure out what to do, cause this blog has had way too much vaction time!
So when I was able to log on and saw this still waiting to be published, I thoughy why knot?
Do you know that there are over 300 varities of watermelon? Red, pink, white and yellow in a variety of shapes and sizes. It is great as is, in savory salads, cook it on the grill, blend it into margaritas…
or make it into ice cream!
How about this beautiful John Johannsen artwork for Melissa Shirley designs? now that is allot of watermelon!
Even Mooch wants to celebrate National Watermelon Day!
Or how about this canvas by Eye Candy for Ruth Schmuff? I have stitched 2 of these cat and could easily have done them all!
I see something! I hear something! says AlleyCat. and until next time…keep on stitching
