Following up

 So o have to confess that this year the Very Canadian tat-a-long spiraled out of control.  I blame it on the fact that I had strep throat and I decided my original idea was too simple.  So that’s why I ended up asking you for 2 tulips and maple leaves instead of 1 of each.  I thought that the bookmark was too simple and boring.  My judgement was kinda off.  Either way I have 2 more projects based on the tulip and maple leaf combo that I’m sharing here.


Tulips and Maple leaf-  Need a Ride?

You will need one tulip and one maple leaf.  The patterns can be found here:
