This pattern is 8 inches X 10 inches. There are two versions. One has the USA and the other shows a gold metal in it's place.Patty and I have enjoyed watching the Olympics this last week. We tune in every night at 8pm and watch until midnight. We have both always enjoyed sports and the Olympics are so much more than just sporting events. The stories of the athletes and the hard work and sacrifice they put in to climb to the top are inspiring. Patty loves the gymnastics and my favorites are basketball and track & field.
It's also fun to watch some of the sports that get very little recognition. I watched archery and women's handball. They were fun to see.
Some of the soccer(football for everyone else in the world) matches have been great. Watching Usain Bolt run the 100 is amazing. How can anyone be so much better than the rest of the world? Swimming was incredible this Olympics. Veteran Michael Phelps and newcomer Missy Franklin are are going to be seen a lot on US TV commercials for a while.
You have to give a big congratulations to Great Britain for what seems to be a wonderful event. Putting on something this big is amazingly difficult and they seem to have pulled it off pretty well.
