Can you feel that I love Patriotic quilts? Of course anything that has red in it, I'm there. This quilt was a Saturday sampler I did 3 years ago (I think) from
American Quilting. One of my favorites. Don't look at the mistake. I think everyone of my quilts has a hiccup in it. Oh well. That is what makes them unique.
This one is from a book called, "Women of Grace & Charm". A quilting tribute to the Women who served in WWII. By Barb Adams and Alma Allen. Has a lot of stories. Good reading, and some beautiful quilts.
I had fun making this one. The pattern is from "Simple Choices", by
Abbey Lane Quilts. I love doing log cabin, so this is called a "wonky" log cabin. I decided to do circles with a star on top. They have frayed edges. Making this quilt went pretty fast.
The picture below shows the block.
This quilt was a kit that I picked up in Tucson, Az., when I was there last summer. Yes I am originally from Tucson, was there visiting family. I think it screams summer. It was very quick and easy.
I saw this wreath on Pintrest. My daughter Brooke had pinned it. I knew I had to make it. Put my own spin on it. The flowers are easy to make. Maybe I will do a tutorial on them. The wreath form is made out of a pool noodle. Go figure! Find the instructions here at
Fox Hollow Cottage.
Well that's it for now. Working on another Patriotic quilt. Will show it soon.
