Hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July and were out celebrating for America's 250th Birthday. 

I am sticking to my RWB theme this month with more blocks QOV blocks. The centers were a BOM that I won awhile back. I added the strips to make them 12" finished and will donate all for our QOV projects. This week I will also be working on A little freedom during my Tuesday Sewing group. Hope to get more of the blocks done and get this one into the finished column.

Have a great week!

This week has been a week of cutting. With the flag quilt on the longarm this week getting quilted, I have been cutting out the blocks for the next quilt. Eight blue blocks and 8 red blocks. I came up a bit short on the red fabrics, but Sandi is helping me out and sending a couple to me so I can finish this up.

I still need to purchase more of the red fabric, and hope to hit some fabric stores on our next road trip coming up.

A Little Freedom

Enjoy your week!

Almost finished with the flag quilt. This will be the next one up for my patriotic quilts that I am working on in honor of America 250. This is a pattern by  Primitive Gatherings and I will be using what is left from the flag quilt. Hopefully I will have enough to make all the blocks, thought I will have to purchase more of the red and background.

Happy Sewing!

Here's where I am this week on "Our Flag Stands for Freedom. More star blocks to make!

Yesterday at our guild meeting, I helped give a presentation on Storm at Sea Quilts. It was fun researching this topic and learning all the different variations of this block along with how many different ways there are to make it. That is me, on the left, and two of our members with our versions of Storm at Sea.

Enjoy the rest of your week!
