Kimberly’s Red, White & June Projects

Freedom Flowers from Summer Memories Quilt & Cross Stitch Book by Susan Ache.

Note: Kimberly is using Aurifloss White Floss Spool (2024) in addition to the Summer Memories Aurifloss Thread Box on any pieces where a white is needed in addition to the other colors. If you’re stitching any other Summer Memories patterns you may also need the Aurifloss Chalk (2026) and Dark Turquoise (4182), floss spools which are not in the Summer Memories Aurifloss Thread Box.

  1. what other fabric can I use for the patriotic instead of the 22 count?

    1. Hi Maria, I’m not sure which pattern you mean here. Could you please clarify?

  2. Dear Kimberly,

    Thank you for this awesome Red, White and June SAL! I learned how to make my first quilt from you and now I enjoy cross-stitch thanks to your tutorials and inspiration.

    Have a great vacation!

    Love in Christ,

    Viola

  3. I already gave myself a head start on the Star Spangled Ornaments! They are adorable and are really stitching up fast. Finished Benjamin’s Kite, but now working on American Pie… Sew Tasty! Thank you for a fun summer stitch. xoxo

  4. Any other fabric suggestions for the star spangled ornaments besides the 25ct pebble or is there an eta when it will be back in stock? I would love to get started on these!

  5. Where can I go to find out how to make the bows and attach them to the Star Spangled ornaments. The QR code shows a video for the Christmas ornaments and not these. Which did not have bows. Thank you!
