This years theme - Red White & Blue


It's been a busy month.  Lots of things going on, lots of things to do.  Even so, I managed to get 2 quilts done.  The first one is called "Utah Americana".  A friend who works for the State of Utah gave me one of his "seed bags" and I just had to use it in a quilt. Since I used an Americana pattern and the seed bag is from the State of Utah, I had to call it "Utah Americana".  The second quilt was another Tumbler Flag quilt.  I used several left over red fabrics and a cream with a blue print in it.  I absolutely love the results.  I believe I am using an America theme in my quilts this year.  It's been alot of fun.  I have more Tumbler blocks cut out of red, white & blue scraps and will sew them into another quilt, though it may not be a flag pattern this time.  Then again, you never know what I'll do!  I hope everyone has found something they love to do and are willing to share their talents with those around them.
