My DD made this wall hanging for me. She actually started it in 2001 and wanted to give it to me every year for Christmas, but never finished it. After I started quilting this fall and she helped me quilt and bind the twin quilt I made, she finished this one and gave it to me --- it only took her 9 years! I love it and she did a great job!

Perfect! Love the colors!!

Esqmommy 12-31-2009 10:58 AM

that is so pretty! I'll be she feels sooooo good to get it out of her UFO pile!!! Do you have a spot for it on the wall?

Margie 12-31-2009 01:04 PM

I love it!! Great job, I would love one of those. Is there a pattern for it??

Margie

omak 12-31-2009 01:06 PM

Beautiful! (your DD reminds me of someone else I know and love <g>)

QuiltingGrannie 12-31-2009 01:28 PM

Margie, Don't know if there is a pattern or not. It was a project they did so she could learn to use her (then) new sewing machine. They didn't have time to finish it so she learned the rest on her own.

For those who would like the pattern for the Flag wall hanging my DD made me here it is. My co-worker found it for me. The pattern uses other fabric colors, but use any that you like. I hope this comes through for you to use.

Feathers 01-11-2010 08:34 AM

Thank you so much for the pattern. This would be a great gift for 4th of July host/hostess. I'll be using it.

sewjoyce 01-11-2010 08:57 AM

Thanks so much for the pattern. Looks easy enough for me :D :D
