'Key West Sampler' by Brightneedle |
Start: May 26, 2019
Finish: September 22, 2019
Ramblings:
Colors are all based on what you can find in the Keys: the feral parrots (although it should be a chicken), the fishes, the Fleming-O house, the flowers. Letters are in 'Irish Cream' for the St. Paddy's Day trips I've had down there. :)
