Thread: International Patriotic Challenge

QuiltE - I can't open the link. It keeps crashing my Explorer. I'll try from work on Monday.

Franky is on my design wall now. I am seriously thinking of issuing another challenge - design a character then design a quilt around that character. If that character happens to end up patriotic he can come play with Monty.

If I issue the challenge it will be early next week and you can all meet Franky and all his 1-1/2 inch cut squares and half-square triangles. 30 pieces for is head alone! What have I gotten myself into?

JenniKy ... glad you enjoyed!

W4Me ... It looks like it worked for JenniKy ... so e'll let you guess for awhile!!!!!!!!!! Looks like you're not wasting anytime with Franky!! A thought ... you might want to re-word "quilt" as many will think that only a full bed size quilt is eligible, whereas I'm thinking you're also meaning wall hangings? Or perhaps I am wrong?

30 pieces for Frankies head alone.. Now Im really intrigued. I signed up for a online FMQ class Large quilts on a small machine. I watched first session this morning. Now time to get busy back on swap squares. Really hot and humid outside so I have every good reason to stay inside where its cool and do a lot of sewing Have a wonderful day ladies. I'll check in later to see if anyone else has been busy.

Hey ya'll I just droped in ta tell ya'll what I'll be doin' taday. My DD is 29 taday & youngest DSon is 19 taday. They were even born at about the same time o' day. 4:00pm. We will have a BBQ for DS. DD is in FL so i can't do anything for her as far as BBQ or family gatherin'. Well I gotta go & git the house clean. Where do I put all o' this sewin' stuff?????????????

Here's my Patriotic quilt. It's called Twisted Star. I have to decide on my corners, as I ran out of the one I had intended on using and can't find it. It's actually laying sideways!!

I love your twisted star quilt...

Hello Karen - nice twisted star!

At last, a flax flower. One done, two to go.

Thanks Muv and wildyard! I will finish it before next 4th of July!

Here's my Patriotice Table Runner, called "Northern Stars!"

YaYa .... two lovely projects in the works. Looks like the leftovers were used for the runner.

Muv ... I always love blue in most anything! I bet these flowers are a lot tinier than they appear in the pic! Pretty Pretty Pretty!!!!! One down, two to go .... and then do you have all your applique work done?
