Flowers In Your Hair

 

If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there

I am actually running out of room to embroider on my Peace, Love, & Haight Ashbury quilt! I had started to stitch the second line of the stanza above in the yellow rectangle, but there was not enough space. I think I will end up having to do it by machine so I can make the letters a little smaller.

Seems miraculous that I am nearing completion on embroidering this quilt top. Here is the first image I ever posted of it. I have to laugh because in the process of deciding where the embroidery motifs would best fit, the left side of the quilt became the top. I did not even realize I had done that until just a few weeks ago.

Well, like I said, I did not start out with any intent to make this quilt. I just got my box of batiks scraps out and began piecing.
