Red Work Farm

 
As a way to honor and remember my friend Maxine,
I am giving away a kit for Red Work Farm.

 
This was Maxine's version.

 
A 1996 design from Laurene Sinema combining
applique and stitchery.

 
The kit includes instructions, background muslin, floss
and fabrics for the applique.
 
I have to restrict this to US residents only
and I would appreciate it if you are
a follower of my blog. 
 
I'll choose a winner next week.

  10. I spent every summer as a child on my "Up North" grandparents farm. I still cherish the happy memories of that time in my life-gathering eggs, jumping in the oat bins, driving the cattle to pasture-a wonderful experience for children!

  11. How thoughtful of you to honor Maxine in this way. I love the simplicity of this design. I'm a primitive person and this is lovely. I was raised on my grandparents farm. I enjoy your blog and all the animals you show us.

  12. I do miss Maxine and hearing about her life, it seems we have lost so many in the past years and she will always be in our hearts.

  21. You are thoughtful and remembering a friend like this would make her blush inside knowing how much you liked her. I don't need the kit but just wanted you to know that although you may not personally care for winter time since you have a more "real" winter than North Carolina, but I am looking forward to your winter because of your beautiful photos of animals that visit you! But first I hope your fall is everything you would like it to be!
