And just like that, summer is over. Basically.







No. No. I know. Summer isn't over. But once vacations are done, your high school aged daughter goes back to school and you move your college girl back to school, summer is over.

I never shared this patriotic star quilt here. I made it mostly in June and finished it up right around July 4th. It's bold and graphic. Minimally quilted. Large enough to take to the park to watch fireworks each summer. Plus, it used up lots of fabric that I had been saving for just this purpose.

Lots to share about our trip to Maine. Hopefully soon.

Love this quilt!!! Wish it were mine! It's a someday quilt for me. Wish I could sew faster or slow down the days. So many dream quilts on my lists. Enjoy!!!

Beautiful. I don't usually care for patriotic quilts but I like the scrappiness of this one.

Ya'll! I'm reading your comments but am not able to reply like I've been able to for the past 10 years! I'm working to fix it. I'm so sorry. -dana
