Crow Pie

Ever have to eat crow pie? hehe! Remember the song....Four and Twenty Blackbirds baked in a pie? Well my post is themed on that today! While my brother was resting in the hospital I took a break one day and visited a prim shop in the area. I found a table cloth someone had stitched with 20 blackbirds around the edge and 4 in the center. It was all coffee stained(and not ironed as you can see) The first pic is the center of the table cloth. This is a pic of the edge stitched with the birds.....
The next pic is of a Crow Pie I bought at simply Primitive in Truro.....my fav little shop that had the fire. A bit of a freaky story with this. I had looked at it for awhile and couldnt decide to buy it cause it was a little pricey for me. The DAY of the fire...all day I was thinking I had to go get it so I did. That night the place caught fire and everything that was fabric was ruined! Weird!! Kinda scared me! But I do love the pie!
This isnt a good pic but thats it sitting on my tablecloth I bought! I just love it and I think they were meant to go together.
I hope you all have a great weekend. I know I promised finished fence and yard pics...I will get to them soon. Has taken me a couple days to get things back in order from being gone. My brother continues to improve...we can only hope and pray.

Thanks again.

    What a great tablecloth. I'd LOVE to use them but I just can't seem to keep food or drinks from spilling on them. LOL. Your crow pie is so cute! I've seen a free pattern for that somewhere. Hmmmmm... maybe I need one. LOL.

    Hi Holli,
    Thanks for stopping by my blog! I love your crow goodies ...they look great together! And I will say a prayer for your bro. I have a bro like that too...He has been into all sorts of stuff since he was 16!
    And you are RIGHT when hubby and I work on things here at the house ... it's funny how they seem to come out right ... the reason behind that is because it is ours and we care. Have a wonderful week.
    Teri♥♥♥

    Oooooh!!! I love it girl! I am a crow lover too. I would have snatched that up in a heart beat! That is really freaky you were able to get your pie the DAY of the fire. It was just meant to be for you to have it! It all looks great!
