And yet there's more (collected pictures from all over the place -- these are NOT ones I made)...

Super quick
Jan - Love your Bow Ties!
Here's one that I started recently while at a Bonnie Hunter (quiltville.com) workshop. Keep in mind that these are just slapped on my "design wall" - none of the wedges are sewn together yet and I have a few more blocks to make.
This is a free pattern @ www.quiltville.com. Usually done in completely scrappy colors, I wanted something a little more controlled and went with patriotic. These are super quick and easy - the only place you match anything is at the first piece (in my case, the center red). After that, it's slap-dash, no matching of seams. You could do a couple of them by September with no problem!
I wanted a little gold, but have made my points of gold too large, making the gold stand out more than I intended. I haven't yet decided if I'm going to take all of them off (as this is pieced on a paper foundation, the stitiches are tiny!) or just live with it as it is.

Normaly I do not buy a single pattern but I fell in love with this one. Made a Christmas quilt from it and now plan on doing a red white and blue one.
Got it at Joanns with a coupon.
My photo software is not working right now so cannot post a picture. It is large and small stars with squares.
