Happy July 4th!

         ABIGAIL by BLACKBIRD DESIGNS


Happy 4th of July!  I absolutely love these word of John Adams!

I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.

Have a wonderful day!

    Beautiful frame choice. I enjoyed stitching this but still need to get it framed. I love the words of John Adams too. I even changed the date on my piece to July 2, the date that the Declaration was passed and that John thought would be commemorated! Nancy in NY
