Mrshalibut, I did the shoo fly in Christmas fabric and loved the way it turned out.

I've only made two, and the last one isn't quilted yet. It's my favorite pattern, but there are still so many I haven't made yet!

Mailed my June birthday charms this week.

Received birthday charms from: mrshalibut, djmat, and let'squilt. Thank you so much. These are very tempting to open. I must be strong, repeat, and again. LOL

I made this one for my grown son, out of shirts and homespuns. Isn't this the shoo-fly pattern? Also known as monkey wrench and hole-in-the-barn-door?
