    I saw a cute wall hanging which I attempted to reproduce .. not too bad. I noticed afterwards the warping on the yellow.. it was fusible batting, un stuck it, reironed it and its fine (YEAH). The outside hanging started with a .39c piece of three panels of watermellons. Loved them HATED them. So I kept one whole and diced up the rest and think it came out ok. It perks up the porch and makes things a bit summer like. I never make things with fruit so its one odd summer! Now on to Halloween! (I know I am missing something like July, August and Sept). I can hardly wait however :)

    Everything is very nice but those crows are delightful.

    Did you have a pattern for the crows or just do them on your own? They are adorable! The watermelon rail hanging is cute too.
