Hi everyone! Happy Independence Week!

I just finished these and wanted to share them with you.

The Fourth of July wallhanging has a metal eagle that sits on top of the pole and a cord that hangs down like the rope. They get attached after it is quilted. It is called, "Oh Beautiful", after the song. I love the purple mountains and amber waves of grain.

:D

Your table runner looks great on your table. The paper pieced one is just amazing.

Wonderful work. You should be happy.
I truly ♥ the flag. Happy 4th.

Thank you girls! I think I might use the wallhanging as a cener medallion to my red white and blue swap quilt.

love your wallhanging and table runner

Great job. I like them both, but the July wallhanging is beautiful. I would give a "pretty penny" just to be able to get my paper piecing to look like that. So well done. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely table runner. Wallhanging is awesome!

RedGarnet222 06-30-2011 06:04 PM

Thanks everyone so much! It was fun to do. But, I have to confess. I had to remake one of the seven strips because I made it reversed the first time! Dang phone rang all day yesterday and I got fouled up making it. LOL! I guess that serves me right for not paying close attention. A blonde thing I am sure.

Really nice. I especially like the wall hanging. Thanks for sharing. :D

Love the wall hanging! Do you mind sharing pattern? Since DH was 20 year military I love all things patriotic.

RedGarnet222 06-30-2011 09:21 PM

This is just a pattern as far as I know. I had all of the fabric except the star fabric in my stash.


The information on the pattern says

I bought it second hand a few weeks ago for less than three dollars with the embellishment kit inside. Normally the embellishment kit is two dollars by itself. (It is a metal eagle and rope for the flag pole.) Just a lucky find.

I used the June Taylor paper piecing printable sheets to print it out on. I will never do that again! I usually use just tracing paper and that works fine. This was a pill to tear out!

If you do find the people (supplier), will you let me know? I want to get another embellishment kit to make another one. My sons are gonna argue over this one ... LOL!

Have a great fourth and be safe. :thumbup:
