I'm working on a patriotic tablerunner for the 4th of July. I bought a fat quarter bundles of patriotic pieces of fabric.
Block 1 is complete.
You can see the pattern is all half square triangles except for the corner.
The pattern in a quilt pattern in the Summer V.4, Issue 3 of a Missouri Star Quilt Co. Block book.
I am just using one row of the quilt. I choose this pattern because it is a 10.5 block and will work well for me on a sofa table.
Blocks 2 and 3 are completed, too.
Now I have two more blocks to go. Hope to work on them this week.
On the crafty side, I revived an old spring wreath into a patriotic one. Added some vining geraniums and a patriotic bow and poof, it was ready to be hung on the door. The ribbon is from Michael's.
Thanks for stopping by - Judy.

lovely bundle! You choose the perfect pattern. I love your stars on white!
ReplyDeleteOoh, how pretty! Although, looking at the pattern photo, I am cringing -- who put WATERMELON on that gorgeous quilt?! What crazy person is pouring LEMONADE over the quilt?! Can't they at least cover the table runner with clear vinyl or something?! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful block. I am sure it will make a stunning quilt. Your wreath is even more gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI admire your talent with fabric. My grandmother, whom I adored, had this talent. I inherited her sewing machine, but don't seem to have the knack for it. Thank you for linking up today.
ReplyDeleteThe blocks look great. Perfect fabric choices. Even though Jennie's videos are great, I love all of my Block magazines. I'm always looking through them for ideas.0
