Oh! WOW! this is so great, and so patriotic to boot. Love the use of the nail polish. Our Dana painted some of the flower stamens on one of her artworks in her stairwell with aqua nail polish and it stands out so well. Love Chris

You have inspired me. I have some of this same fabric just sitting in my drawer. I also have the perfect buttons. They are ceramic flag hearts I made a few years ago. it will look great (I hope) together. You did a wonderful job on yours. Hugs, Susan
