Tiny Tuesday Week 3

Coming to you a wee bit late today but it is still Tuesday! I did this in the car line. I think it looks more like a mushroom than an umbrella this week!

My troop chose France for Thinking Day. We have been learning a bit about girl scouting in France. We needed to have a Flag for the event.... I cut out a 12x24 of blue, white and red right before the meeting. Drew a 1/4 line on each side of the white and took it with me with my hand stitching coin purse. 

I asked my juniors (4th graders) if they wanted to hand stitch it after I got the rest working on making a few more croissant swaps and attaching our label. (which they corrected me as I put 2018 instead of 2019!) Oops! Anyway.... I had two say sure, and another 2 with no... but one changed her mind and ended up really enjoying it! Her cousin got a photo and I let Grandma know! hehehe... I'm going to convert these girls... they just don't know it yet! They did a great job too!

Maybe a little mushroom-like. I can picture a little mouse sheltering underneath. :)

Karen - Quilts...etc. said...

LOL - it could kind of pass for either but with the hooked end I'd say an umbrella

Funny, I looked at your piece and immediately though umbrella but I can see how it might look a little like a mushroom. You are setting such a good example for these 4th grade girl scouts!

Mushrooms are nature's umbrella for small creatures. Viva La France!
