This little paper pieced flag block came through my email and I thought you might like it also! I wish it had come LAST WEEK so I could have done something with it – but it’s something to file away for future use.

It’s VERY cute! Here’s a link to the free pdf. It makes a 4” block, but could be easily enlarged!

As for me --- we are up and at it, but there will be no heading to the cabin until I get a binding on a quilt so I have something to stitch on the porch.

That’s right – it’s a 3 quilt binding weekend! But that allows me to sit wherever my guys are sitting and participate – except for when I’ll be in the kitchen!

The weather here has been very rainy, and it is supposed to rain on and off today too…..so there will be lots of indoor activity stuff going on.

Remember this backing??

I can’t show you the front, it’s for the next book – but it’s quilted! And trimmed!

It’s always fun for me to see just where blocks are going to end up in the quilting process. I piece them big, and let the blocks fall where they may. I lost a bit of that feathered star…that’s the only one I’m sad about…but not that sad! It’s out of the orphan bin and in a quilt, and that’s all I care about!

The other end…

The quilt is so big…I wanted to take pictures out on my deck, but it’s wet because of the rain, so this will have to do. I really DO LIKE IT! It’s amazing what quilting will do for something that you are kind of ho-hum about.
